They do. it varies state by state but there's usually a bar that says COMMERCIAL DRIVERS LICENSE and then what class of vehic you're cleared to drive. My old man had a CDL class A with haz and tanker and rode a motorcycle so it looks like Class: A,H,X,M

Well looks like I have a new hobby, collecting more drivers license endorsements.

Hi Jen, are you licensed to transport controlled substances, specifically ephedrine or pseudo-ephedrine?

Followup Question: Do you have a shipment of said substances passing through or nearby Dallas in the next 14 days? It would be preferable if the driver were particularly scrawny. Thanks.

Right now the biggest issue we're facing is a driver shortage. Who in their right mind would want to drive a truck?

I'll take a crack at this one.... a millennial complaining about how there aren't any jobs? Oh wait, you said would WANT to work. nm

I can't imagine why a generation of kids brought up in single-track schools with no vo-tech where they're all told they can and need to go to college and get office jobs to make not poverty money and not be a complete loser or failure might frown on taking a job with no upward mobility, commonly associated with fat, smelly, social outcast types cruising for whores and gay hook-ups at truck stops.

Man, military loads are where it's at if you get in good with the poor Lt. that's in charge of the moves. Highly competitive but when you land a loving whale it's the best feeling in the world when something like a set of screws bumps the dock in san diego or groton

Had a dude laid up in san diego once because the navy wasn't on time. The boat just didn't get there on time, and the driver is like, "yo can i get some detention?" and I'm like yeah.. Usually it's $100 / day but i think i can squeeze you $150?" and i turned around and was like, "Yo, this guy's been sitting for 20 hours here what can we do" and the guy's like, "I've added $500 for the detention pay." Yeah good news Jimmy! I got you your $150 :911:
