Ready Mix Driver: Transition Class A CDL to Logistics or Heavy Equipment

The original poster (OP) has a valuable Class A CDL with a tanker endorsement, acquired as a ready mix driver, but finds long-haul tractor/trailer driving unsuitable. This license is a strong foundation for various other careers. The OP can transition into roles that still leverage their CDL but aren't OTR (Over The Road) trucking, such as local delivery of specialized materials, or becoming a Heavy Equipment Operator on construction sites. Alternatively, they can move into office-based logistics roles like Dispatcher or Logistics Coordinator, utilizing their practical understanding of trucking operations. Their experience with safety protocols and route management is transferable. A shift to a supervisory role in a warehouse or an instructional position for CDL training are also viable paths.
