    A friend of mine drove for TransAm for 2 years and speaks highly of the company. The reason he left is because his wife pressured him to get a local/home every day driving job which he hates. He says if he ever goes back OTR it will be with TransAm. It was a good fit for him, but not his wife.

    She has a very good career which she wants to continue. In my opinion she should have given him some leeway, because he's a really decent man at home and on the road.

    Tht is good in some ways to hear..I just jump to conclusion usually people tht have a insecurity issue
    Use the your on the road excuse to create more drama
    People who are stable are more understanding about it
    An with smelly phones an the innerboob it ain't like you gotta send smoke signals no more too communicate
