1. I spend most of my working hours seated in a comfortable chair, listening to an audio book, snacks and beverages nearby, watching the scenery go by.
2. I at least feel like I am working independently much of the time. I am responsible to problem-solve and get the job done so I get the satisfaction of knowing I overcome all obstacles and did it. Or to put it another way, there is very little committee work involved.
3. I meet enough mean, angry, hateful people to be spiritually challenged...enough genuinely kind, helpful people to be encouraged.
4. I enjoy the humor, courtesy and fellowship of my fellow drivers. We have sort of a club out here.
5. When I get my paycheck, I like the fact that I have no doubt that I have earned every penny of it.
6. After I sleep in a truck all week the normal pleasures of home and a loving companion seem like incomparable luxuries.
P.S. I could write as much on what I DETEST about being a truck driver, but in the spirit of the holidays I am sticking with the positive. Maybe you could add a few points to the list.
