Well Howdy one and all!!

Well Hello everyone in trucking land …….

It’s just me JamesC call me a rookie/newbie and you can even call me a wannabe cuz that is just what I want to be a trucker. I have always wanted to be an over the road trucker or should I say OTR?

Anyways seeing how construction is really going down hill and Obama said I needed a change (I think he meant live off of my change cuz the dollars have run out) I have decided after 30 years of doing what I once loved (key word there once) that I would shoot for the stars and fulfill the dream of becoming an OTR.

Kids are all grown, wife is contented to let me do what ever it takes to chase that dream so I guess now is as good as any time to go for it ……

I have two more weeks of school (six more months of un-employment) so the newage starts here, yall be gentle with me I am tough but everyone has feelings ya know.

As we old dudes say ……. Keep on Truck-n yall.

 

Thanks Lil Blue Pony, getting a little worried with all the bad news I read about trucking ...... kinda makes one wonder where it all comes from.

Years ago (25 or so) I did a little transport driving in west Texas for a couple of months (5 or 6 months), ... seems truckers were a bit freindlier back then now days all you see boo whoo boo whoo I got screwed.

Anyways I have tried to weed out the good stuff even through the bad I know starting at the bottom aint no easy chore so I aint looking for a bed of roses .... I just want to drive as much as I can in the next 2 - 4 years or so then look at the options once that is over....

After all I am looking for a truck driving job right? So whats the big beef about home time?

Wheels turning = dollars in pocket
Weekends at home = dollars out of pocket
Wife is happier with dollars in pocket = me happier and eat better

So I can't wait to get on the road .....

Keep on Truck-n

Oh P.S.
