    The reason i asked is because after being otr almost 3 straight years, I might be taking on this new local gig which will require me to commute 56 miles each way every day, so i thought am i the only fool doing this? Lol!

    That's going to make for a long long day if they have you working a lot of hours... If your doing linehaul and driving 400 or 500 miles a night that's really going to suck.

    I commute 7 miles one way to work.

    It's even harder to remember why you left it in the house...

    I have carried my wallet out to the truck stuck it on the dash then spent an hour in the house looking for it....instances like this seem to happen more and more as I "get wiser" with age
