All I wanted to do as a kid. Then I got smart. Didnt wanna waste my life like the oldman. I was gonna build hot rods and race cars. Which I have, but I found my skill better paying working on trucks. Short story, I fought it till about 30 years old. I was not gonna be a trucker. 31 I bought a truck. Figired if I could run other peoples businesses, I could run my own. Made me forth generation independent. There are ups and downs. Not were I wanna be yet. But to honest, at this point I'd make a really sheety employee. So we are trucking. Building trucks and trailers out of rocks and sticks because its the DNA ingrained in me. I can't even stop it at this point. And its exactly what I wanted to do at a young age. Only hope I make them oldmen proud, someday.pumpkinishere, Siinman, singlescrewshaker and 13 others Thank this. -
To be honest yeah my carriers rate are still good and have always made money here but as some have mentioned here the flat on the floor don't give a dam hooray for me jerks that inhabit the roads these days have made this job miserable.
I keep hoping these accident prone morons will become uninsurable but they seem to multiply by the day !
At 35 years in I'd retire if I could and have slowed way down but will never be able to fully retire .
I hope this downturn kills off the bone heads that get a dot number they can't even get on the truck without being half upside down and a company name like yopo etc ....running 50 mph down 80 in Nebraska tapping their brakes and 20 miles down the road passes me doing 75 weaving around looking at a phone .
Same people that sit at fuel islands and block dock doors .
Sad to say but everytime I see these jerks in a ditch I think " good we got rid of another one "
