    I'm going to pull a jerry springer and give a final thought for the day.

    For some reason, certain people relish in other peoples pain and suffering. Some enjoy it so much they will be the ones to enable or inflict it. I am convinced that the people that revel in negativity do not know joy or happiness in their own life, so they feel a burning desire to make as many other people as they are able to feel the misery the come to know as constant.
    As much as I would love to lash out at these kind of peopl in my life, I restrain myself, knowing I'm the more mature, and civilized person.

    It is one thing to make a living to support the family and maybe squire a few toys, it is quite another to hold money over ones humanity .
    In this case, money is the root of evil, and if that is so, greed is the plant that grows on the surface .

    In closing I want to convey that I wish all people better in life than what they have. I hope they find peace. I wish everyone who hits an obstacle doesn't look at it as a failure, but an opportunity to learn and grow.
    As the Great One stated, "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take "

    Take this with a grain of salt and I mean no disrespect, but get whatever job, even unrelated , and keep your crap straight for a little bit to provoke to companies you have made a turn in life. Research to see if companies hire with unstable backgrounds.

    newdriver2014,in 1 sentence you just gave several reasons NOT to become a L/C or O/O.
    Basicly you to learn to sort your life out.
    Unless you can do that there is no point in becoming indepent as the skills you need to sort your life out now are the same skills you need to be succesfull in bussiness.

    If you are working now stay there, keep your record clean. OTR newbies usually quit by 6 months. Why would you lease a truck? There is plenty of evil companies out there that will let you sign on the dotted line. A guaranteed recipe for more financial disaster.

    Unpaid traffic fines? Or child support fines?
