Dan M.'s Bio

Over 40 years in kitchens and sick of it. I spent 10 years during that time owning a small produce business. I partnered with a farmer that allowed me to drive the 26' box truck with air brakes w/o a CDL. I'm looking to make the move to trucking and I hope I have what it takes. I'm good with people and a great driver and have been someone who used to work 90-100 hours a week in the summers. Loved the advice from the pros and hope I can be accepted into the fold. 4 older kids and 3 ex wives later...

How does a truck driver protect themselves

You can fill a pillow case with batteries or filled soda cans then beat the crap out of someone. Am I the only one here from the Philly/NJ/NY area? LOL

Rainy you’re not, lol. First of all we have a “look” that says keep walkin. But really most of it is being aware of your surroundings and being cautious always.>

Sorry, messed up the quote again

Anyone carry their laptop?

Brought mine with me for the 4 weeks out with a trainer...didn't even take it out of the bag. Too darn busy to use it. Not a bad thing though, had a great time.

Hey guys. Out with the trainer finishing up week one. Loving it so far. My trainer and I have gotten along pretty well. I’ve asked to do most of everything which was ok with him. Want to be great at ALL of it. Besides having to maneuver in very tight areas of Houston and all of the construction through Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma...been great. And if anyone from Texas is asking about the 2 million bugs missing...tell them they’re in my grill and windshield. Lol
