My suggestion is looking into brokerage outfits. They use remote agents and it’s the type of work you can do while caring for an infant, and while the money isn’t the best walking in, you can very quickly move to making percentage on top of salary once you know the game.

It’s not. It’s the logistics of trucking industry. Putting loads with drivers and paying them less than the shipper is for delivery, essentially.

I’d start with the smaller brokerage houses and reach out to their hr department to snoop for remote opportunities. Also employment sites and agencies, searching for keywords like “full time remote”. You might be surprised, it’s becoming more common.

Insurance companies have decent remote work, but brokerage is about trucking freight. Putting drivers with shippers basically.
