Newbie from Central Ohio, kinda

Whats up, Im Matt, 32 from Newark Ohio. Im headed out to Springfield the 17th after months and months of consideration, i settled on prime to start my career. i know all the horror stories, so please, save the time lol. it was between them and roehl, and prime has more freight lanes running by the house.

Been around trucking and transportation for goin on 15 years now, on the office side as well as on the road. spent many summers and breaks running iron and throwin tarps and chains with a buddy whos like a second dad, and have spent 7 years as a dispatcher and manager for several dedicated outfits. i just finished up running for a local beverage supplier in straight trucks. I know ive still got a ways to go in my development, but at least ive got a little dirt behind my ears lol. This is something ive been waiting on for the last few yrs to fall into place, and am exited as hell to be finally making the move

Ive got got 4 kids, a soon to be wife if she decides she can deal with me being gone, a dog and a goldfish named fluffy. yea i know ill be possibly out 4-6 weeks at a time, and thats gonna suck, but wants not going to suck is seting myself and my family up for a future lol. Plus, i need a brak from the wifey every now and then....

Anyway, ive been lurking on here for a year, and have been posting alot as of late, so might as well make it offical
