    This website has a wealth of information for new and current drivers. It is a tremendous tool to chart our success in this industry. The past two years that I've been on here I've noticed a lot of people will come on here and take the information that's provided for free then disappear after getting on with a company.

    The point of this thread is to remind everyone to always Pay It Forward !

    Regardless of your experience with a company....be it good or bad...we must always share that information with each other so others can make an informed decision. This is the only way we drivers will make things better for us in the industry. Tell your story.

    Pay It Forward !

    great post. There's a wealth of experience on this site. From all spectrums of trucking. As folks move forward with their careers , making changes etc , nice to see that there are folks willing to give a helping hand.


    My story is really simple. Learned to drive helping an uncle on his dairy farm as a teen in the mid - 60's , after that I started out in a dump truck , moved on to OTR running freight from NC to the west coast , then produce back into the north-east. Did that for a couple years , then a friend hooks me up with GSF. Wound up staying there for the next 30+ years doing fast-food delivery til I retired in 2011.

    Excellent point! ! Very well said too! This site helps prevent drivers from going to bad companies. If the driver still decides to go he was warned. Remember if we as drivers dont look out for each other no one else will.....

    I am reading these forums, watching people on Youtube, trying to get my head on LEVEL before I go out.

    I am looking forward to the day I can pay it forward and help someone (whether it be online, at a shipper/receiver, or at a truck stop). Looking forward to seeing suggestions and hopefully giving suggestions.
     
    TruckDuo Thanks this.
