    Like training the evil Muslims to drive trucks so they can carry out their terrorist acts!. I trained a whole bunch of Muslims and all I got was a lot of respect from them.

    I did however have to insist on them using deodorant. It isn't that they weren't clean, deodorant just never occurred to them. BTW, they do make a trucker potty, why cut a hole in the floor?

    I have found that most humans are pretty well...humans.

    I would think so. That makes $104,000 a year. Beat me over the head for not driving a truck sooner. Geez, my wife was right all this time.

    $104,000 gross is not any money. The Truck payment, insurance,repairs,taxes,tires,ect are? Net is what matters.

    I understand this, but unfortunately my wife sees a check for $2,000 and that's all she sees. I tried to explain with that amount he must own his own truck and is responsible for all his own gas, oil changes, repairs, tolls and taxes.

    Your wife sounds like she has no concept of reality. Has she heard the one about the Banker who needs $500 and he can then give her a cool crisp Million?

    That gets many folks in trouble, if you just look at the gross it won't tell the whole story. Net is what matters.

    that's right, and after ALL the truck expenses.........one would be lucky to take home $45,000 per year............BUT.........now one has to pay for workman's comp, ss taxes, blue cross/dental. could end up with a mere $30,000 after all else is taken out........!!!


    best to just be a company driver.
