    I've heard the saying decades ago and now I can say it, retirement isn't what it's all cracked up to be.... unless you have a couple of million put away.

    I have looked for something else, it seems that nobody wants to hire a retired truck driver, if you look to drive cars doing shuttle runs, they look at you as being over qualified, I tried Cabela's and couldn't get hired, no retail experience. I know truckin' is hard, harder than decades ago but that's all I know how to.
