He was released 9 years later at the age of 28. When Domo came home, he had to adjust to society and more importantly try become a productive member of it. While in prison Domo, studied for his CDL knowledge test and got his License immediately after release . He had interest in Trucking for 2 reasons. One, it’s was a trade and skill that one could take away from him And The second Which I won’t spoil for you. Interestingly, After getting his license, Domo did not drive for 4 years, still dabbling in the streets trying to find his way adjust. Eventually, He decided that he no longer wanted to gamble with his life and he had to do something else. He jumped back into Trucking... Though most companies would not be receptive to Domo because of his past and prior felony conviction He was given a shot to drive a dump truck for a local small business owner with One dump truck. This experience would be a pivotal moment for Domo as he would learn the dump truck industry. He would establish himself as a worker and find out how, when and where to get work by making all the right connections with some key players In the industry. Soon, Domo felt that he was Ready for entrepreneurship. In 2017, Domo purchased his own brand new #kenworth dump truck to drive and started Pull-up bar master, LLC named after his passion for fitness and doing pull ups. In 2018 he purchased his 2nd truck and last year in 2020 he purchased 7 more. Many people have questioned a criticized Domo quick ascension, but he maintains that there is a method to his madness and he continues to prove the naysayers wrong. Domo continues to grow his company and fleet as a owner and now a broker providing opportunities for other small dump trucks companies. He accepts the fact that at one point he took from his community so now it’s his responsibility to give back by providing jobs. I can assure you, this podcast is one of the realest most uncut show we’ve recorded to date. Domo gives us a unfiltered look into the dump truck industry, his very own personal growth and overcoming adversity. Domo says it best here “Being an entrepreneur definitely has it’s benefits I’m my own boss so I make my own schedule I own my own trucks so If I want to pull over and work out I just pull over and work out When you realize the importance of living life on your own terms and getting paid well while doing it, then you will understand how important being an entrepreneur is! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/trucknhustle/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/trucknhustle/support
