[QUOTE="Phantom Trucker, post: 12270429, member: 175975"]Avoid the complainers. If they were worthy of listening to they probably wouldn’t be complaining. If you’re having doubts as to whether you want to stay in this industry, it’s best not to become an owner operator. Purchasing a truck is sort of a commitment [I]to[/I] the industry. (At least until you get your invested capital returned). The fly by night operators are operating like crooks. Ripping off everyone they can; for as long as they can. Believe it or not there still is some very good paying jobs in trucking. Not necessarily union outfits or specialty segments either. There’s good paying companies struggling to get drivers who will work nights or weekends or even do a bit of labour.[/QUOTE]
