Today marked the end of my first month in the trucking industry. It was a good month. I have seen and learned allot. I am now up to 108.75 hours of driving. I need to have 240 hours behind the wheel before i graduate to being a solo driver. I am really looking forward to that.
My day started by driving the truck into Houston. The consignee happened to be located just a few miles from where Ken and Owen live. They were kind enough to get up a little earlier than usual this morning to meet me and go to Denny's for breakfast. It was great to see both of them. Good food, good company. I hope working in this industry will allow me to see some relatives that I don't get to see on a regular basis.
We are still at least three hours out of Memphis. I am looking forward to getting some sleep while not moving. I guess it is all part of the learning process. I will write again when I find out where we will be heading next........Tom
