    Please do not hate and treat truck drivers like most Dispatch with no respect. I know it's tuff to deal with a unshaved fat pot belly smelly uneducated foul mouth driver. But he gave up on trying to be a normal person when he started. Not all but most drivers I see out here are loosers, psychopaths, with no ability to communicate , articulate there thoughts ,because they only converse with there self, and since communications with elogs,texting,qcom,pay and go fuel pumps , most have already lost there minds just waiting on fmcsa to start checking mental ability to comprehend why they drive for. Oh I forgot a lot not all but a lot of these guys are homeless or live in there mother basment

    That's not a problem having your boyfriend in another state and you ride with him.He could meet you at the nearest truckstop from your house or even bobtail and pick you up.of course he would have to get approval with his company

    I treat everyone the way I'd like to be treated. My specialty is winning over angry and/or surly people so I don't foresee that being an issue, but I appreciate the heads up. :)

    Can't leave kiddo at home long enough to pull that off though, otherwise that would be awesome! I'd do it in a heartbeat.
