    I always hated being under the corporate thumb.
    It can be the same in driving, unfortunately. If you trade your stationary cube for a mobile cube by going with a mega.

    You know the answer already. Day and night. Freedom to not kiss ###. But you can go home and have a life after work. As a long haul driver I cannot go home very often. That's something to consider.

    There's more space in a cubicle than some trucks, even with a sleeper.

    Also, at the end of the day, you go home from a cubicle. Whereas at the end of a long day driving, you move about 1 foot to the back.

    Living in a truck for weeks at a time can be suffocating and claustrophobic.

    I don't find it that way in the slightest.
    But I am a hermit and anti-social at heart.

    Me too to an extent. It's just I prefer to cloister in a slightly roomier environ.

    What helps to give the illusion of expansiveness is the view out the front window. To die for...
