 I asked my mother, how did I start? And she said that I used to just beat on things. So one Christmas, she brought me a drum set. You would thought I was playing for a massive crowd because when I got up that morning, it's like my whole family was just sitting there looking at me just waiting for me to play. I just started kind of like messing around with it. And then I started playing for the Sunday School Choir and eventually came full-time at my home church. I've been drumming for 14 years. Everybody needs an outlet, something to kind of break them away from the norm. I don't know, I was attracted to just rhythm. That's just a way I can just really express myself. My brother, he plays the organ trumpet. My father, he plays the drums and band. When he was in high school, so I feel like I kind of bounced off of that. And even with my sister, she actually is a drummer as well. I tell her, say, we all need to just get together and just make this one big, massive band. A lot of truck drivers in the family as well. Initially, how I got in, I just liked to drive from and take road trips. I was always the driver. I had this bright idea, so why not get paid for it? So my uncle, he works with the company as well. And he has been driving pretty much my whole entire life. So when he used to come in on home time, we would just climb up in this truck, just kind of play with the CB and different things like that. I've been driving for 10 years. It's not a lot of people in this industry could see a million miles at a young age to hit a million safe miles was a great accomplishment. And then I was kind of like on this little race with my uncle. He's the next million-miler in the terminal or whatever. So he's been driving 30-plus years, but this would be the first time that he's been with a company that long to hit a million miles. I'm very excited because a lot of guys that were older than me, you know, that's not million miles. They saw that I stuck with one company, stayed with him the whole entire time and kept a safe record. I have a Blue International that's awaiting for me one day whenever it gets there. Yeah, it's not there. They've ordered it, but it takes a while, but I'm excited. Blue is my favorite color. The International is a big truck, not only for the way it rides, but even with training, it's spacious. It rides real smooth. A lot of the controls are easier to explain than other trucks. So I've been training five years, over 50 drivers that I've trained with this company across the country. A lot of good people, still friends with to this day, whether they stay with the company or not. So it was definitely a good experience. Introduce a new light to drivers that's new and worried about what to expect out here. I get a driver on my trucks and the very first question that they ask me is, how long have you been driving? Because they're nervous. They want to make sure they're in good hands or they want to be with someone that's experienced. So, you know, for a while I'd be like, oh, I've been driving, you know, eight years, nine years. So now it's just like, hey, I have a million miles. I've been driving a million miles and this is their facial expression. It's like, okay, now that's good. That's good. And then the next person's like, how old are you? Being in this industry, you have to have a great helpmate. So my wife has been very encouraging. I'm normally home maybe two to four days a month. Having someone that I don't see often but understands like how the industry works and then we make those moments count and even if I'm not training, she comes on the road and takes over my radio but, you know, she's very supportive. We did a lot of adventurous things. We went to do the out of the ordinary type things. So we went skydiving the day before I went which was super fun, you know. I'm glad we made it, you know. When we got there before they set us up and hooked the harness on us, so she was crying. She was just sitting there crying, you know. And I put that pressure on her. I was like, if you want to marry me, you got to jump out of this airplane. You know, I just want to see how strong your love is, you know. The best thing about driving is definitely seeing the states. Long stretches, you'd have time to think contemplate. Like you use that as playing the drum, whatever, because I plan out in my day. So if I'm playing the drums or if I'm calculating beats or whatever and looking for combinations, I would say it's tied into me calculating throughout the day. My routes, you know, everything has to be done on a timely basis or whatever. So that's how I section everything up. We have an amazing thing. It's like friends, you know, they got my back. It doesn't feel like a job. Not only was Knight a good company along the way, the commitment and the loyalty that they showed me and the hard times that I've dealt with, you know, like devs in my family where I need to take off for personal reasons, they were understanding. I never had a problem where I wasn't able to get home to handle the things that I need. So I had a good work and personal life balance that kept me along the way over the years.
