I have a computer programmer business that is self sustaining so while sitting around bored in my house, I decided to do some traveling to nearby cities in my car. One night I was the only car on the road, surrounded by trucks. I thought how cool it would be to visit all of these cities without having to pay so much for gas and hotels. I did the research and all of the negative things truckers mentioned about the industry do not bother me. I know in life there are going to be problems so when they come I just try to find the solution instead of crying and beating myself up.

Came out of the Army SF in 07' I didnt want to be around people anymore so I bought a truck. I do enjoy being my own boss the only other boss I have is the clock. Its great to just go out west in the Mountains and aee sunrises and sunsets that most people only see in magazines. The job is not without stress, but being the man in charge and not having supervisors its a lot easier to deal with. Ive been able too visit 49 states as well as Canada, Ive even hauled up too Nunavut province. Ive hiked national parks that are breathtaking. Its been a great ride so far.

I've been around delivering stuff for years. I wanted to try my hand at other things, did, didn't work out so I came back to what I feel is a strong suit.
mje Thanks this. -
LOL!!!! Speaking of toys, I'm still interested in RC heavy equipment. Just don't have the money to waste on it.

The free week ends , the family time , the great food , the great pension and medical , the annual leave, the relaxed atmosphere , the hot babes but most of all the heaps of money that you make.
