So my wifes cousin just so happens to be an O/O and is currently running only 2 of his four trucks. He agreed to let me "Ride Along" with him on a few of his short trips. Little did I know I was gonna be behind the wheel. As of yesterday, I have about 200 miles under my belt. Not alot I know but it's a whole lot to me since I have never even been inside of a truck til now. He doesn't really have time to Teach me everything I need to know other than going forward, gear changes, making turns, etc. So far, I love being behind the wheel, seeing places I haven't seen before, believe it or not, I even kinda enjoyed sleeping in the truck. I'm currently waiting/looking forward to the next trip. He has to be in West Virginia Monday morning then Ohio and back to Alabama then home. Not sure I'm going with him for this one though, I have a few things I need to take care of here at home then I'll be free to go on the next one.
