Hey man, don't take it too hard. Trucking requires a lot of self control. Maybe trucking isn't the right fit for you at 23. Take a break, pursue a different career path your interested in. Trucking will always be here if you get the itch to try again. If you do attempt trucking again, just realize you need to have a little more respect towards your license and that 80k pound rolling death machine. You have your whole life ahead of you. This is nothing more than a speed bump and an experience.

I think it’s important to remember though that RN’s pull down at least 30K more than the highest paid driver out here.rachi Thanks this. -

Wandering gets in the blood. Now the best I can do is get on a plane, Hainan Airlines, in Las Vegas and depart the plane in Beijing. Ride the fast train after that to various places in China.

Nursing is way more profitable than trucking. In our area depending on what level you are working at (Charge Nurse maybe?) you will get close to 60 a hour and essentially free medical care and so forth.
In my recent surgery I stayed a week in a private room, I had 4 CNA's and 6 RN's dedicated to me round the clock (Keeping in mind its only 10 patients on that wing and there are two other wings. One nurse obviously did not want to be there and several were angels when I was not at my best.
My last Trauma ER run prior to that surgery featured 8 interns in addition to 6 RN's and One attending and one resident on hand all in the room just to deal with me very fast if I threw a code or whatever. The Insurance paid about 10,000 dollars without question when that particular run was resolved in about 4 hours. If I needed higher care there is a helicopter flight from Vilonia and another in Searcy that would be on the roof for me to UAMS in 7 minutes give or take and at UAMS in about 15 flat. Thats our highest care hospital in the state. Anything is possible there. However my local hospital has most everything they need. Anything truly special like a hyperbaric etc is at UAMS.
Regarding the tickets in trucking? They bite bad. But in time you will forget the burn. And probably quit being such a difficult driving with speeding etc. Its not worth it. My ex was dedicated to caring for those whose minds were being eaten up to nothing via Alzheimer and dementia etc. Some of the people who were patients had very big lives and when they reached a certain point during their decline start sundowning and sometimes become escape artists literally seeking or looking high and low for whatever it is they lost and cannot find. (It's gone and thats tragic) So they cannot ever be alone. Once they descend towards violence or extremely infantile behaviors then they are removed from private care.
The cost in Arkansas for private home care is around 18.46 or so, due to the minimum wage increase at 10.00 from 9.25 They have to recalculate and see where they are going to find the other .40 cents per hour that is lost by the state across the board 24/7 until they find that correct number and get it approved to charge say 19.20 this year and when MW increases to 11 in next 1 jan they will have to do it again. In the mean time that means a extra 350 or so per month to the family trying to keep a loved one at home a little longer 24/7 with private CNA's and nurses.
Also in our hospital when my spouse was a ward clerk, they cut nursing staff to one nurse every 10 patients on the floor. Now if anyone knows anything about how much time each patient needs to have every hour with a nurse trying to gather up vitals to feed that computer record koisk that follows her from room to room its not very much time at all. And a patient having a code or some other crisis will simply throw a wrench across the entire floor. Eveyrone will literally just have to wait while the sickest was resolved first.
If you ever go to a hospital have someone with you. A advocate of sorts with you in the private room. A cot is provided them. Particularly if they contain information on advanced directives, DNR and other situations. If you do not have someone with you, then you run the risk of being warehoused in the far end of the hall and left there to be visited once a day in the morning for a few minutes.
