Last night I had the privilege to meet up with another great member of TT. Here is how it happened.
I was at my shipper waiting to get my trailer loaded. Out of the blue my phone goes off. It was a private message from Ernie aka salty dog. After I left the shipper. We met up at a truck stop a few miles away. Ernie helped me make my first parallel park after I scaled my load.
Then we sat down and visited for about an hour and a half. Plus he called me this morning to make sure everything got going good for me today.
This site has the best member's of any group I have ever been a part of outside the military. So for those of you just getting going in trucking or still thinking about it. Remember that there is always help out there. Especially if it comes from the old vets here on TT.
