Getting tired

Sounds like you need a vacation, go see some mountains for a week or two.

 

Take a vacation overseas.

 

Vacations are okay, but if you aren't happy when you get back from one, it doesn't help. I never liked going on vacation knowing what crap I had to return to. Remember, other trucking jobs always looks better from a distance, ALL trucking jobs are boring, unless you haul something different everyday, like I did with rail cans. I rarely delivered to the same place twice. The horrors of pulling a box around will convince you in short order, it really is the "low of the low" in trucking ( sorry, van and reefer draggers, it's true). When I had my company route job and got burnt out, the boss would put me on the dock for a couple days, you never saw someone so willing to get back in a truck. Rather than a vacation, which I feel is a band-aid on a heart attack, you have experience, nobody says you have to stay, and job market for drivers couldn't be better today. Try something else.

 

Take a vacation, clear your head. If all else fails, try dry bulk tankers. Guaranteed free entertainment every day.

I just got what I've always wanted. A dedicated run. And I'm actually bored with it. Same place loading and unloading, twice a day, all week long. I literally know where every pothole in the road between the two places is.

Maybe it'll get better, but a month into this and I'm bored.

 

Keep your trucking licence and think about doing something else maybe.

 

I know how that feels but on the plus side most of my days only about 9-10hrs on avg. 81-380-80-287 everyday Lol with a little upstate thrown in the mix

 

I know what your saying driver , we would sit for days on Tour.
I dont care how nice the hotel was they all sucked.
Wait til the bud bugs get you , i had to go to the ER , they bit me all over even my face , had to call the Heavy Hitters on that nightmare.

 

My day is usually 11 hours, and it's all on 81 from Harrisburg to Martinsburg WV. It's typically a nice ride. Even when there's an accident, the back roads offer nice scenery, if you know to stay off route 11.
