I don’t really like trucking so far...

Well the story behind that day is I was running around all over the state and I have to do a regional route the next day so I was running late in arguing with one of the warehouse guys because he would not take my empty trailer so I call my dispatcher and Ask her what to do because he won’t take my trailer and she told me to not worry about it because I don’t have anymore time and like I said I was literally in the middle of nowhere and it being my second day I was usually overwhelmed and not paired to sleep in my truck at all.... it was literally one of those mental break down days

 

Your right.
I did not research the ####### truck drivers on the highway. I did not research that in order to make a decent living you have to say goodbye to your family.
I didn’t research that companies just evaluate you on your driving that hand you the keys without any additional training leave you frustrated in the middle of nowhere.
Believe me bud... I have another job lined up for the same amount of pay and way less work. The only reason why I’m staying is because I already spent $5000 for a license and I hate to see it go to waste.

 

I was told the worst thing you could do as a rookie is say no to this badgers that’s what leaves you with routes that they pretty bad...is this true?

 

It’s not that it was the complete negligence of the company, I was way too under trained to be out of my own too soon. There was sooooooooooooooooooooooo much they didn’t teach or tell me. And I know absolutely nothing about this industry that was enough to drive me over the edge.
