OTR maybe the only option you have at this point. Being out of work for this long is hurting you. Take what you can get because if your out of the driving seat much longer most comapnies will want a refresher course to be able to get insurance.

Yes this is what i am finding out as of now because i have been out for so long. i was given the option of giving up my CDL and going back through school or finding a job that does not involve a CDL . Because at this point no one will hire me !! this really sucks........... lost job do to the economy,now i cant find one because of the economy.... What a life !
