I’ve been feeling burnt out lately. Always something to do next. Can’t do everything, so things don’t get done. It’s not just Trucking, it’s the schedule that goes along with it. Always all or nothing. I guess I prefer it better than a more structured life. Never liked that idea. But after so many years, I wonder if a 7-3 job, with a couple days during the week, after work, along with a Saturday working on my other interests, would be more productive. Take Sunday off. Burned out? Yeah. But it applies to everything, not just my Job. Can’t help but wonder, given the amount of time invested Trucking, if my time would have been better spent doing something else. I can’t imagine many young people wanting to get into Trucking. Given all the controls and restraints. Doesn’t sound very appealing. Maybe that will help drive pay up even more. With all the variables involved, without an established second Trade or Business, Trucking can make it hard to plan a good exit strategy. Unless there’s a defined good pension involved. Very few I see exit on their Own terms. I don’t like to be negative. But reality is, things don’t always go as planned.
