After being laid off from Ryder Truck Rental in 10/2010 I looked for work as a CDL CLASS A driver and found that the economy was still soft from the economic down turn of 2008 and that most trucking companys had people on lay off. I went back to work as a contractor and landscape design . Since then as the economy began to improve I started looking for full time work in the trucking industry.
