Looking for suitable Team Mate for work in whatever pays best $$

CDL-A 4 months experience OTR looking for a well paying Solo/Team gig​

I am seeking employment within the trucking community as a Tractor Trailer Driver. I hold a Commercial Driver License (Class A) from the state of New Jersey since late November 2017. I carry endorsements for HazMat, Doubles/Triples, and Tanker. I worked with Werner Enterprises from December 6th, 2017 through April 5th of this year as both a Dry Van and Solo TCU/Reefer OTR and a member of a Team TCU/Reefer OTR.

I have trained with a million-mile, accident free, trainer “Over the Road” from December through the end of January 2018 while on a dedicated route that brought us from Elizabeth, NJ to Franklin Park, IL (near Chicago O’Hara Airport) and back again multiple times per week through Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey (800 miles each way). I gained valuable experience driving through a variety of weather conditions including more than a few snowstorms this winter. The training was invaluable, and I benefited from the experience of learning to perfect my docking skills in an older, very tightly spaced distribution center.

I began my truck driving career as a solo driver on a TCU team which serviced the lower 48 states. I made many pick-ups and deliveries across many different territories and businesses. I hauled chocolate from Hershey, Pork from Tyson’s, and various types of fresh produce from Mexico. I am proficient at utilizing a Temperature Controlled Van and how to set temperatures according to bill of lading stated guidelines at shipper and consignee requests.

After a month’s time working solo OTR, I was offered the opportunity to gain more experience and earn more money as a team driver within the WERNER TCU division. The earnings rate was higher, and I was ensured more overall miles and longer individual trips. My team mate was found through Werner’s internal database and had a month’s less experience than I – It was his first time OTR after completing his training and also first TCU experience.

After 4 months, the time has come to look forward to increased earnings and higher pay rates for my time spent on-the-road and away from my young family. I'd like to be a daily driver or be home every other day, but will also accept the sacrifices that come with a higher paycheck. Regional is also preferred in order to make it home every weekend, but again I can make a sacrifice in order to put away savings for my family's future. I'd like to get back every other weekend (ie. 2 weeks out - 1 weekend off), but if it means a better paycheck, I will go as much as 4 weeks OTR before returning home.

I'm Male, in my late 40's, have a wife and infant son at home.
I'm of average weight for my height (6'2").
I don't snore when sleeping ( "That must have been a distant jake-brake you heard, not me." )
I don't drink.
I don't smoke (including wacky to-baccy or other).
I don't pop pills.
.
I drink coffee.
I am a music enthusiast of many genres.
I play acoustic guitar and sing (tho some may not call it that).
I enjoy cultured discussions on a variety of different topics, though I stay away from politics and religion.
I am well educated and well mannered.

I currently live in the Cherry Hill, New Jersey area (Merchantville, NJ 08109) just 5 minutes across the bridge from Philadelphia, PA. I am rather close to highways Interstate 95, Interstate 295, State Route 130, and State Route 38.

Sincerely,

Merchantville, NJ 08109
