    Met up with my trainer last week in Oklahoma City @ 2AM on a Saturday. No load till Monday, been running since with some time lost on a service. Been running team since Tuesday or wed. Currently sitting in Ca. On a reset. Seen Il to Tx several times. Made it from Tx to Cali in just over 24 hrs.

    Remember the local driving job I told you I was going for? I just got the confirmation today that I got it and start Jan 4th. Turned in the resignation to Dr. S. today.

    I'm glad you're getting some miles. Hope it all continues to go well for you.

    ...but your number is not on the most recent list I have from SCI. Send me your number by private message and I'll get in touch. We'll talk via PM.

    Update. Been on the truck for 26 days. I think. Drove for 23 of them. Done a whole one back. Wow I'm an expert. ood thing I still have two more days on the truck. But wait I am off for at least 4 days. then I go back on a truck. Sure hope the new lead driver gives me lots of backing practice.

    Considering you should've been the only one driving for the first 3-5 days, you should've been backing plenty of times. Did your LD get you released to drive as team from the start, or did he not bother even getting permission from your FM?
