Just curious

hey mandiesel, ive been OTR for just under a year and i love it. i left law enforcement to do this. No particular reason. My father has been in this industry for 30+ years. The freedom is awesome and the pay isnt bad. You get to see alot of sights and meet some very interesting people. In this profession you can choose when/if you decide to talk to people, so that gives you the option to be sociable, LOL.
good luck

 

im divorced and have a 13yr old and 8yr old and they think what dad does "is the coolest". of course they miss me and i miss them, but its about the money and this is how i choose to make it. it really makes the time i am at home with them really good.

 

I became a trucker because it was always a childhood dream. Have 3 degrees, and people always tell me I am wasting brainpower. Well, I look forward to going to work, and I like what I do. More than I could say when I was utilizing my degrees.

 

lol....Give into temptation...you know you want it!

 

If it is a sweatshop on wheels then I make it that way.

Yes you have to truly like what you do to enjoy it but that goes for any job.

 

i have been in printing for 8 yrs and i'm going to school right now to drive it seems the only way for me right now to make more money myself i hope its not a mistake i will however make the best of it........peace!

 

I'm getting ready to go to school in Feb. Driving a truck is something I've wanted to do for a long time. I've loved trucks since I was a kid. I'm also doing it for the money. I've been driving a concrete truck for 4 years now and I 'm making 10.00 an hour, haven't had a raise in 2 years, time to go for it!
