I have held a Class A CDL for about 10 1/2 years My first job was deleivering ice for a local ice co it lasted 3 months until the weather turned cold. That gave me just enought experance to get a job through a Temp CO. I still work for the Co they hired me to I had two weeks with the Temp Co and the Co I work for had enought hrs with them to hire me away. For close to 9 1/2 years I delievered Auto Parts for a Bumper to Bumper Auto Parts Co over night in a 6 wheeler out of Springfield, MO My Co restruchered in March this year. Several Warehouse people lost their jobs I now take a Trailer Truck to our Tulsa,OK Warehouse each afternoon and get the loads for the RT trucks then The other drivers and I load their trucks when I return so they can run their RTs. I am not qualified to advise you because I have not driven OTR. I was 55 years old when I started and I am 65 now and will keep working as long as I can. I was a Dairy Farmer before and driving a trailer truck was no big deal after pulling goosenecks for years. I do not make a lot of money, but I am home every day.
