Advice on who to drive for, losing my truck

I’m sorry to hear that brother. Hang in there. Where might you be located for those that have suggestions?

Nothing to be embarrassed about. Sounds like you fought hard and 7 yrs is a good run, much longer then most.

Good luck with everything.

 

No need to be embarrassed. It's a tough world out there right now, and you're doing what is necessary to pay the bills.

 

There is nothing to be embarrassed about. There were times I lived in the rig as well. I did 5 months down in I-10 one winter into early spring one year. It was a life changing season that year. Particularly when being away for 5 months or 6 rather and going home to a reception that says eh... hello. You would think that when you miss someone that long in life... something to celebrate. But nope. And so it goes.

Tend to your mailing. You can get a address for a non tax state and have your mail collected at a shipping type store or similar. Combined with a state that does not take taxes out against your gross wages, you should be feeling a bit more free in your wages whatever it might be.

I am also divorced, but that divorced was a hard assed financial problem that was solved with two signatures from me in 10 minutes on two separate forms. One for the divorce and the other for the house and land sale. However be that as it may we are still working together as a team in life. Just one of those things that happens fairly rarely. You would not believe the cause of our divorce. Student loans. Same as my father and his wife having 5 jobs between both of them trying to hold on to a house at 18% interest in those days. It ate them alive. And so it goes.

 

Wow, small world. I looked up your business and you live 20 mins from me.

 

I live close to a particular small town here in Arkansas and when I went east to evaluate my teachers from the state high school, turned out one in particular has family here. She fled this area after college when possible to be a special education teacher in Maryland. And later a administrative officer with some power within the school and state legislature. Some of the stories she shared with me about this area was dead on. No wonder she took off. And what do I do? Go and marry someone here in the hills. Sheesh. lol. Maybe we both take off for another place in a few years...

 

Hey guys I'm not trying to say don't talk about your storys and stuff but also let's try to help him find something !!! What area are you looking in or does it matter ? What kinds pay are you looking for and also what endorsement's tanker pays great especially hazmat !!

 

Did you sell your truck or is it for sale, trailer???

 

Nothing to be embarrassed about man. Businesses close all the time, it's just a part of life.

You could try to find a fleet owner at Mercer, landstar, Bennett, etc... Sometimes those jobs are better than a regular company job and they usually have more freedom.
