    To survive as a trucker, you have to be a little laid back. If you sweat the small stuff, you won't survive.

    On the other hand, you could find a study asking drivers about crazy truckers they know. "Yeah, know a hand they call Wildman. Crazy as hell. Makes a lot of money but he's definitely not playing with all his cards." Next thing you know, they will say that according to their findings, the absolute best and safest drivers would come out of the mental institution.

    Driver shortage is over! And they work for Zoloft!

    What are you talking about? Agreeing with you is a cheap shot?

    For a while I thought I might be suffering from schizophrenia as I kept hearing voices telling me to do things. Eventually I realized that the it was the qualcomm. lol
