    1) Trucking is glamorous!

    2) It is a clean job, you never have to get your hands dirty.

    3) There is no physical work involved, all you do is drive around a bit.

    4) There is no pressure, you don't have the boss looking over your shoulder.

    5) You get the respect of everyone else on the road.

    6) Cops don't bother you as they know you are performing a valuable service!

    7) Your company treats all the employees like one big family.

    8 ) Shippers are happy to see you. they treat you with respect, and load you immediately. They know how valuable your time is. Besides, they want to get that load moving.

    9) Receivers love you. They really need the freight you are bringing in, and realize that without it, they would not have a job. They treat you like a king.

    10) Truck stop food is the best in the world! Everybody knows that if you want a good meal, just look for where the big trucks stop to eat.

    Oh man, this is fun. Do i have to stop now?:biggrin_25523:

    I needed an opportunity to practice my lying and BSing skills. I'm thinking about going into politics, and ya can't ever get caught telling the truth when you're a politician or trucking recruiter! They'll take your birthday away!
