    kinda useless advising this person. he/she is only here to gripe about the job.

    in the end, who's dang fault was it to jump ship into a different facet of trucking, and continually gripe about it..???

    must be the spouse or significant other....

    lost cause, we should all bail out of this one....

    Bull crap!

    A 15 minute nap in a day cab is great. Ask me how I know.

    Or a 15 minute walk, will do wonders for a driver.

    Making excuses after, for royally screwing up, is a huge sign of weakness.

    People who accept fault when they mess up, can possibly learn how to not repeat it.
    But denial, well that means that they will repeat it over and over, and always blame someone else for their own incompetence.

    The boss should have his boot up that guys ###.

    Time to stop driving, and making excuses.

    When anyone screws up, they need to own it, and correct the problem.

    Tell your friend to grow the hell up!

    Nobody can pressure you into driving a truck, if they can then your friend shouldn't be driving.

    I've had issues maintaining my lane too but I stop, I've even had to sleep in a day cab before not because I was tired but because I was running out of hours and couldn't find a hotel that would take me. Uncomfortable and not very legal, but at least I was at the hotel parking lot so it looks like I spent the night there.

    Sometimes you gotta make the best of it.

    If your old mega won’t take you back then you are a bad driver.
