Well i definitely Appreciate your honesty. It is important to see all sides. Fact of the matter is though that it beats being unemployed or working minimum wage garbage jobs.
Maybe this will work out for me and maybe it won't, but i am glad i chose to give this challenging career a shot.

 

trucking isnt all that bad now....its just different from how it used to be....in some ways better, (roads etc) in some ways worse (regs).....yeah we dont make the money we should, and there is A LOT to put up with out here...BUT there are still things in trucking, that you cant get anywhere else......the freedom of the road...the sunrise or sunset that brings tears to your eyes, the beautiful states we get to travel thru ( i have so many gorgeous pics from over the years) and there are still good people out here too.....truckin can still be enjoyable....its just hard for some of us to see the negative things that have happened, so we tend to forget about the good that still exists....

 

Good post there giggles...could not agree more....

 

thank you...had more to say, but too lazy to type it...hey, at least i am honest.....

 

I always heard it said "Truckers are the Knights of the Road". White Knights is new to me, but whatever. The color white is only a property of the armor not the knight. Be heck to keep it clean in a scrap.

The best reason for me to post is that a truck driver has helped me on 2 occasions, and because of that I was not stuck for the night. Neither time would the driver accept a dime of payment or anything in return, but I did convince one to take a case of water.

Motorists should also help each other. It should not be up to only the truck drivers. The biggest challenge is evaluating the difference between skanky and evil vs. poor and decent. Public places help when those in need don't seem at first look exactly the best company. There's never anything wrong with calling 911 and reporting a stranded motorist if the person seems too creepy for direct interaction. And a lot of them do today!.
