Looking for teammate: F, Charlotte, NC, 1.5 years experience, non-smoker, small dog

About me:
I’m a 29 year old female with 1.5 years OTR driving experience. Most of it is dry van with ~7 months hauling reefers. I have driven 8 and 10 speeds as well as an automatic. I currently don’t have any endorsements, but I’m working on changing that. I’m a safe and confident driver with a clean record and can usually back into a spot with only a couple pull ups, if any. I’m polite and professional and cheerful unless I’m running on 3 hours of sleep and don’t have coffee. I’m small and not as strong as a lot of the guys out here, but what I lack in size and strength, I make up for in stubbornness and resourcefulness. I try to stay clean and organized as much as possible. I’m a non-smoker and I have a dog. She’s 35 pounds of pure happiness. She’s super friendly and (usually) well behaved. She’s fixed and all her vaccinations are up to date, but she does shed a bit.


What I’m looking for in a team driver:
I’M NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING PHYSICAL! THIS IS A DEAL BREAKER! IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A CUDDLE BUDDY, LOOK ELSEWHERE! I’M HERE TO DO MY JOB AND MAKE MONEY! (Sorry, wanted to make sure that was perfectly clear from the get-go, lol. Not trying to be rude, just don’t want to waste anyone’s time. Including my own.)

I’m looking for someone (male or female) with at least as much experience as I have, preferably more. I’d like to find someone whose personality meshes well with mine and who has the same work ethic. Non-smoker. (Cigarette and cigar smoke causes me to have trouble breathing. It’s not an allergy or asthma, just a sensitivity. Vaping for some reason doesn’t bother me, though.) I don’t have a problem if you have a dog, as long as whatever company we’re driving for doesn’t have a problem with it. I don’t care what kind of music you listen to as long as you’re not blaring it while I’m sleeping. I figure whoever is driving should be in charge of the music and if the other person doesn’t like it… well… that’s what headphones are for, lol.

What I’m looking for on the road:
The company I currently drive for does not have a ton of team driving opportunities so I’m looking to swap companies. I’d like to get on a dedicated route that allows me to stop at a terminal or truck stop with a gym every other day or so. (If you want to time it so that the truck is shut down for a few hours in between our shifts, I’d be happy for a workout buddy.) I want a (fairly) predictable schedule. 12 hour shifts, 11 hour shifts with 2 hours shut down, etc. I have no preference driving night shift or day shift. I aim to drive 400-500 miles per day and expect the other person to do the same. I’d prefer a manual transmission, but an automatic is not a deal breaker. I’d love to do coast to coast, southeast regional, or dedicated OTR. I’m not opposed to flatbed or tanker, but keep in mind I have no experience with these types of freight. (I’m a fast learner, though, and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty.) I take my home time in Charlotte, NC and would like to be out anywhere from 4-6 weeks at a time with 4-6 days off.

Let me know if you have any questions. beccathingy@gmail.com

 

I ended up going with Covenant. Keeping my fingers crossed that I end up with someone decent and not some psycho, lol. I'm not sure how to close the post.
