    Few years ago I was loving it but I saw my expenses climb up except my paycheck and wasn't worth it and I got tired of hearing "we offer competitive rates" when I was working more for less

    I did once. I had a ticket in 12 months, so they bounced me.

    Well the only way I would go thru the cross Bronx again in a truck is that if I'm the passenger.

    hows that working out for u or just needed a break for a minute feel the same way sometimes just like starting and quitting when ready but it really seems like a company driver with a lot of own risks when the checks cut
