For what its worth, I am in the same boat as you are. I got laid off from my job a couple of months ago and ended up going to school to get my commercial driver's license (Class 1), only to find all the driving jobs disappearing, and the carriers that are hiring require at least two years experience.
My main goal right now is to find an entry level position either as a driver, or in my alternate field, IT. I am currently trying to keep myself busy by volunteering at a homeless shelter, and in a few weeks I will be going to an employment assistance center (both as a user and volunteer). I have absolutely no qualms about starting at the bottom, as long as I can see my way to the top.
