    Im not new to trucking ...just checking out the horror stories ....we live in an age where things like integrity,truth,fair hand shakes,good morals and all such are things of the past ....so when these trucking companys get ahold of these fresh fish it's like ringing the dinner bell ...they like to tell these new drivers how great it is to work for their company ...then they really put it to these drivers when they have them 1200 miles away from home ...it turns my stomach to watch ,some die ,some get burnt out and give up,some get ripped off some work for free .....it's sad to realize that this is what we have become as a society and it's only going get worse because a bad tree can't grow good fruit ....ive made a decent living in trucking but like any one else had to earn my stripes on the road first...and means things like getting devorced over this job ,ripped off ,used,and lied to having no friends,no love life,and coming face to face with instant death a few times ...

    TRUTH, TRUTH, TRUTH!!! LOVE, LOVE driving these huge monsters, love being out & about but yes the last sentence describes me totally but one thing - never married! Like that famous song - "take it on the run,,,," or my ring tone - "I walk along the lonely streets of broken dreams,,,"

    Gee, I must be living a charmed life. Been married, to the same women, for 42 years, have 4 grown kids. Retired about a year ago, now that was tha hardest part. I feel for all of you who have loved and lost, and those who have never loved at all. But that is not only trucking, that is throughout the industries. Today the plan is for instant gratification, not a long term commitment. Anyway, enough said, I will get off mu soap box now. Hope all of you the best, and a happy life.
