I thought you drove a truck?

Grab your torches and pitchforks, its time to crucify FLL again......

The funny part of this is I'd be willing to bet that most of you who took offense to his post would also prefer you children not become "solid waste transfer technicians" when they grow up.

Now back on topic. MRJS, I find that a cold bottle of water on a hot summer day is very appreciated, but most likely just a "your doing a great job" would be great (and most likely not heard enough)!

Believe me, I sure wish I drove a truck except no one will hire me. I have the NH license for driving 18 wheel tractor-trailers w/ haz-mat, tanker & air brakes endorsement but no job experience. I went to trucker school for three months at NH Community Technical College in Littleton, NH and got driving experience up north and was able to pass the NH DMV tests.

But no job! I have applied to a number of local companies in Laconia, Plymouth, and area. Companies you know and see every day....but it's always...what have you got for experience?

I think I'd be a good employee....and have an excellent DMV driving record.

Believe me, between painting and tiling vs driving a heated & air conditioned truck where you just show up and drive safely, with the employer paying salary, their share 7.65% fica, workers comp, med ins....it is a no-brainer!

This area of central New Hampshire just does not have too many CDL-A trucking jobs for new drivers. If you go to www.craigslist.org and look at the transport jobs...there are others like myself in the Alton & Plymouth area who are also looking for driving jobs.

When the Wasau paper mill in Groveton, up north, closed on Dec 31, it also killed the 7-on/off program for new drivers at www.goroehl.com, that I was counting on.

So, I am getting good at operating a paint brush! Am currently between jobs.

Besides, if I had a driving job, there's no way I'd have the time or interest in supporting Meredith SB-2.
