Goals in Trucking

It is inspiring to read about how much you love reefer work.
Maybe I should look into getting a reefer, and stop hauling logs and fuel.

 

I prefer industrial accidents, but then I'm a romantic at heart.

 

I don’t have any goals. I’m a wretch. I have extremely low standards and consistently fail to meet them. I’m a wretch and I should be purged from society. I’ve but one request, however. May the purger be a Kentuckian. At least then, there will be a shred of dignity in this whole ugly affair.

 

Work less, but I already work part time hours so maybe just quit altogether, I dunno.

right before your post I was thinking why hasn’t anyone stated the obvious.

Never shall I think this site doesn’t have wiseguys

 

Daily: To survive the day to day soap opera of working with junior high gossips trapped in grown men's bodies without getting fired for brawling.

Weekly: To get my fleet manager and Atlas corporate to approve me for interstate travel so I won't have to keep getting paid Trident Layers per hour for local work.

Monthly: To start doing interstate jobs and finish paying off my credit card debt.

Yearly: Decide if I want to stay in HHG or use my 1 year exp to switch to LTL furniture hauling. Also, if I decide to stay in HHG then also decide whether I want to stay company, or go lease-operator or owner-op.

Good thread. I plan on checking back in at a week, month, and year to see how I did.

 

Having an employer who recognizes and rewards a strong work ethic is such a blessing. It's common business sense too, but surprisingly rare.
