Yeah, I'm here and alive...I just got home yesterday, decided to take a two week run so that's why I haven't been on here much these past few weeks.
Hey all. Back on the road after a week off. Family medical leave for kidney stones. Spent a couple days touring NC. Then ran New Bern to Indy. Now headed Indy to Lexington then home from there. Well have around 2300 miles for the week. I have stayed pretty busy this week.
I got home early this week. Started the week off running a honda load to irving then a ltl to HAR svc then picking up a load in laredo heading to walton ky. I split that for someone else to have and im going to enjoy my long weekend!
It's time to put this thread to bed gang. I have my notice today and Friday will be my last day with Averitt. I have been offered a job doing sales at a local Kia dealership. My family is excited about me being home and I am excited about a new challenge. Averitt says I am welcome back any time and my FM was excited four me but said she hated to lose me. It's been a fun but sleeping in a truck is getting old. So am I. Time to teach this old dog a new trick out two wise. I'll check in from time to time so sometime needs to start a new thread or carry the torch on this one.
BigMike, I have really enjoyed your journey. You have inspired me. I am 31 (turning 32 in July) and about to start training at a local school on July 22. I am nervous about OTR and have been looking for local and LTL work. Thank you for making me feel at ease about trucking. Best of luck to you, I never could stomach sales which is why I always hated my jobs. I am a people person but sales especially commission only sales would give me an ulcer. Good luck and God Bless!
Im glad we met that day down the road from fulton with the loads of charcoal. Your a good dude and im sure youll do great, God Bless you and your family, stay in touch Big Mike !!
