I went out to Wisconsin for road and skills testing and physical on the 17th, the day the doctor released me to return to work after breaking my foot.
Passed everything, headed home to get my truck and get on the road but it was buried in 3 feet of snow. Couldn’t get my shed open to get my front end loader out so I had to hire an excavator to dig me out. Finally got back on the road the 24th, my anniversary was the 25th.
YEEEEEEESH!!
Well, congrats to healing & getting back OTR , good sir. Dang bummer about the shed & loader, tho!
Sadly, more on the way....(snow, that is!) heading OUR way, too..... YEEEEE hawh. Not.
CONGRATS, MAN!!! It's been THAT LONG already?!?!?! Wow.

OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives.
