That's awesome Paul!

Whether you know it or not, although you yourself were just learning this first year, you helped me and others with your participation in these threads.

That's part of what makes this site so cool. Honest communication through the learning process helps us all. So thanks and....... congratulations! !

Congratulations, Paul! This seems so much a cliché, but it's been great to participate in your trucking education since the start. But I have only a year on you, so I may be old, but not an old timer.

I want to second your first year's experience, all the different driving opportunities, and that gives you a way to make a solid choice to what you'd like to do on the long term. For newer people reading this, yes your first job will probably be OTR but you'll soon have a chance to sample the different things you can do with an 18 wheeler and have fun on your job.

And this is why I love working for Swift. We have so many opportunities here. Thank you for being an important part of my first year out here!

OTR:

Over The Road

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.

Paul, Job well done! We really need to meet up someday. I'm sure our paths will cross eventually. BTW....... You never responded to my question in another thread. How many "Keys" does a piano have. Evidently you have no problem finding all of those, even when you're NOT looking!

If you ever find yourself going through Colorado let me know ether on here or shoot me an email: pgwright88keys@gmail.com

I have to keep the number of keys in my email address or I'd forget that too!

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Hey G, thanks for mentoring me so much during this critical first year. I have come to rely on your consistent wisdom and support, even if you did think I was in my forties!
