someone who does some of the things a real trucker does, and can be mistaken for one at first glance.
Okay, so it's not in the dictionary. But it seems to cover the situation fairly well.
Welcome to my new world.
I've been in it less than four months as I write this (05/04/2008--pay no attention to the date in front of the curtain). Or a little over six months, if you count the time I spent getting a license to drive tractor-trailers, and the time I spent learning to drive them well enough to be trusted with one (quite a different thing...). Not much time at all.
I still don't know much about this world. I've got a lot of learning to do. If you'd like to look over my shoulder while I'm learning you're welcome to.

I've really enjoyed your tales of the road. You've given me a new respect for the 18 wheelers. Keep those updates coming.

Hi...I came across your blog site and found it to be very interesting and enlightening. Thanks for telling your stories on this blog to help people understand about "the big trucks"...I have great respect for you. I have had truckers...(some of them are gentlemen) to help me in traffic...and I help all them that I can. I appreciate all your posts and the days of your life...in coping with the world of driving and being a trucker...or just being a driver of the thing...I will bookmark your page and come to read from your experiences. Thanks. Hope you have a great day...Weekend...Happy Memorial Day...Tiffany
Glad to have you aboard, Tiffany. I'm glad it's been worth the read for you. I hope it continues to be...
