    I OWNED AND OPERATED A CONSTRUCTION COMPANY/ TRUCKING COMPANY, AND YES IT CAN FEEL VERY OVERWHELMING....YOU CAN CALL OOIDA AND SEE ABOUT JOINING THEM. THEY WILL ASSIST YOU...THE LOCAL TRUCKING ASSOCIATION WILL PROBABLY BE YOU BEST BET TO GET STARTED. IF YOU GET SEVERAL FOLDERS AND TITLE THEM IN RESPECT TO THE AREAS OF CONCERN, YOU CAN PUT THE INFO IN EACH FOLDER AS YOU LEARN..... PUT CONTACT AND PHONE NUMBERS ALONG WITH NOTES ABOUT EACH DIFFERENT CONTACT BASED ON THE KIND OF HELP YOU GET AND HAVE THAT TO REFER TO. YOU WILL FIND THAT AS YOU TALK TO ONE PERSON THEY WILL BRING UP OTHER THINGS YOU WILL NEED TO LOOK INTO, SO YOU ALOMOST NEED A SPREAD SHEET TO KEEP YOUR SELF STRAIGHT...YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ABSORB ALL THE INFO AS IT COMES TO YOU SO YOU W:biggrin_25514:ILL NEED A CHECK OFF SHEET OF SOME SORTS, IN ORDER TO FELL CONFIDENT THAT ALL OF THE ISSUES ARE INFACT GETTING ADDRESSED BY YOU.....TRY NOT TO FEEL LIKE YOU NEED TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT IN ONE DAY...BASE YOUR SEARCH ON IMPORTANCE.YOU WILL BE FINE IF YOU DON'T LET IT OVERWHELM YOU.
