Can I get a driving job with a misdemeanor theft on my record?

When I was 16 I got caught stealing a bag of catfish bait, and 2 bobbers, worth about 11 dollars. I did everything that was asked of me with no questions asked, community service, drug screens, seeing my case worker whenever he asked, etc. and they said something about, it would be off my record when I turn 18.

I am concerned about this because I would like to get into trucking, I am 17 now, my dad has done it all his life, my uncle has too. I would like to own my own truck and work for Mercer trans. pulling stepdeck, will that effect what I really want to do with my life? it is my only prior, and my last. Please help
