You're going to make it..and when you and your wife look back..It's going to be a feeling of pride and satisfaction knowing that you didn't quit..
That YOU and your WIFE made a better life for your kids..I look forward to revisiting this thread in a year for an update.
Good luck to you and yours Driver.Dark_Majesty_06 Thanks this. -
You have a family, it's just a matter of finding the right job. Companies kill for full timers like you. Dispatch asked if we wanted to go home, Na, already here. I did it, You can also. Trust me, it works.
Dark_Majesty_06 Thanks this. -
Five!!!!!! You were one busy guy on hometime!!!!!! Lol
NavigatorWife, Dark_Majesty_06 and Truckergirl0720 Thank this. -
I've got 2 boys at home, oldest is 5 and the other turned 1 last month. I missed his birthday, and I don't get home nearly as much as I want to, but I do what's gotta be done. I did a year and a half at a bottom feeder company and now I'm making great money to send home.
You need to put your own personal worries aside and do what's best for your kid and wife. While your on the road, you'll want to go home and be with your family, no doubt about it. But who's gunna pay the rent? Who's gunna buy diapers? Food on the table... Gas in the car... All the stuff that requires YOU to make $.
i can promise you this, if YOU don't take care of your family, someone else WILL step in and do the job for you.Dark_Majesty_06 and Truckergirl0720 Thank this. -
If I had a dollar for every night I wished I was home I would be in Forbes 500. Got to provide for my family. Back then a payphone was the best I could do. Later My Wife came with me. Daughter was grown & married. If you want it bad enough, you will find a way. Don't work for everyone, worked for us. Daughter always said, My Daddy is a Trucker.

I appreciate all the input. I actually have a new confidence if that makes sense. You all have the type of attitude that I want to have and what's the highest form of flattery?? Doing exactly the same and coping the people you look up too. I have put my apps in to a few places that I hope will work out and until then I went hunting a local job for just in case my not so great history bites me in the rear.
I've taken some good information from here and also tried to listen and thank everyone who I've found to be part of the solution. Thanks everyone!RenegadeTrucker and NavigatorWife Thank this.
