is it difficult to get into truck driving right now without any experience other than school?
The schools are flooded right now with folks that have been laid off. The good news is most realize it isn't as easy as they thought and quit within 6-8 months of getting their license.

I usually start out in 3rd gear and shift three times before making it thru an intersection.

A CDL school, and on the job training. You'll start with a big carrier (like Werner) where you will make less per mile... but you're working ain't ya.
