    Sure, I have advice... post daily in the "Resumes/Jobs Wanted" column of Craigslist in your area, specifically targeting O/Os. Keep the post short and sweet, stress your qualifications, and don't quit posting, as the number of people posting on that site is enormous. You might even post more than once a day, it's up to you to figure out that whole scene...

    Also, check www.fleetdirectory.com for company listings in your area. Check the websites, make heller phone calls, and specifically ask to be hooked up with an O/O or "small fleet owner" who has trucks leased on to the listed companies, 10? Go to the site, scroll downward under your state, and start keying messages or making phone calls... "Good luck, and Adios!!!"
