    Meh. You'd do fine. Lots of people have what you have. It's not diagnosed sometimes. You just need to learn to keep it in check. Note the heavy music. I can scream along with it when I'm angry or need to get aggression out.

    Well guys I appreciate all the help I'm getting. I usually only work 16-23hrs a week due to me having Aspergers. I'd love nothing more than to get in to South Eastern Freight Lines or a LTL carrier at Orlando and do yard duty to start with. However I have face the truth: Many people will want to use me and get the tax exemept. I've been used and will say it sucks. People will try to be your friend and say bad things about you behind your back. They discriminate and say you have no place in a truck etcc.. That is my motovation. Many people at my current job do not believe I drove a big rig. I'm proud to have been. Had I asked questions like this, I would not have made my prior mistakes.

    I use a GPS, trucker software. I don't get lonely. I have me. I meet people in the truck stop café. Some I see often, some never again.

    If it's a choice between Greek (ESPECIALLY gyros!), there is no argument! There is or was a place, I think in Sebring called The Olympic Cafe (they use to be in Bradenton) has the best gyros and seafood around.
