{"text":"I have one year of OTR experience with a starter company from 2014_2015 and it was a very bitter sweet experience.\n\nI allowed the company to run me ragged and I burnt out. I ate every night in a truck stop. I allowed the company to give me loads on a lease program(stupid) that ran me ragged and ran me to 10 hours and 48 minutes every night on my HoS. I didn't trip plan well. I just used the fuel stop book and winged how much I could get out of it.\nWhile the company I worked for has its part, I want to try this again and develop a better skill set and work with someone who enjoys doing this and has good long term habits. Preferably an O/O\n\nI enjoyed the driving, the solitude, the quiet, the time to be. I didn't even mind being trained with another driver and am open to driving teams. My experience is old so, before I approach the starter companies, I thought I would drop a line here. I would much rather learn from a small but established owner operator that can teach me the ropes from a small company perspective.\n\nAbout what I am seeking and hopefully what a person seeks in me:\n\n- I have clean hygiene and habits, non smoker. I seek the same.\n\n- Clean license. No tickets, no dui, nothing. the abstract is squeaky clean.\n\n- I am seeking to establish a routine for myself. I would prefer to drive days, but am willing to drive nights or some sort of split schedule. 3am to 3pm. Whatever. As long as what I am doing is as consistent as possible. I know the industry and sometimes its not always perfect, but would like to maintain as best a routine as I can.\n\n- I am a male, turning 37 this month. I have no wife, no kids, no serious debt, a clean license and a clean background. Just passed my DOT medical and renewed my license which is out of NYC. I don't drink beyond 1 or 2 beers every once in a blue and will take a drug test today. \n\n- I am seeking to run in a healthy way over the long term. consistently, eating well, resting well in natural spots as much as possible, (would prefer rest stops over truck stops any day of the week) and would like to eat well. I have no weight issues or medical issues what so ever. \n\n- For that 1 year, I did a lot of NYC runs, Brooklyn grand army plaza, hunts point and every other major city. Doesn't bother me any.\n\n- Regarding my skill set, I have a lot to learn, but a solid grasp of the basics after a year. Some of those backups in NYC required me to get out of the truck 20 times but it gets done without incident. I am looking to ride with someone who has masterful skillset. \n\n- In regards to a driver to work with, I really don't care who they are as long as they are clean, and can appreciate silence and settle into a solid routine in between us once the \"getting to know you\" phase is over. Race, age or gender isn't important. Maybe a good sense of humor. Life is too hard to be hanging around someone who doesn't laugh enough. Other than that, don't care. I am ex-military, worked IT and construction in the past so am comfortable using my head and my hands. Ideally, I am interested in O/O in the future so I would love to team with one and learn as much as I can.\n\nI will be ready to run on February 8th and can buy a ticket to wherever for then. If this appeals to you, please message me, or leave contact info, send me a homing pigeon and or smoke signals. \n\nThanks!\nVic","pics":"[]","canComment":true}
