    Today... I start with Knight.

    As you can see... I'm wearing my helmet.

    Looking forward to seeing how things go!

    I'm sorry but if you go in there looking like that you'll likely get fired. Here change your helmet, after all your going to work for knight!

    Thanks for the posts! Especially the Knight armor!

    First day was pretty cool. Nice people. All the Knight drivers I've met are cool people with nice trucks... generally all happy with their jobs, too.

    I'm not expecting a cake walk... I know the field can suck. I'll update as I go along!

    Haven't had time to update. Started in Phoenix... been in Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and Wisconsin back and forth doing loads. Picking up today in Rochelle, Ill and heading back to Phoenix for a Monday morning drop and a 34 hour restart!! Can't wait to crash a night in my own bed!

    Been running my butt off with my trainer. Got a good guy, but he goes on vacation this week, so I will get a different one until I solo out in a few weeks.

    Driving a nice grey Volvo 8 speed (has a low, so kind of a 9) Truck only has 90k miles on it. Rides like a brand new Cadillac!

    I'm having a blast out there. Knight pays on time and they keep you moving!

    I promise to keep the updates coming along when I get another chance!
