Neither did I.

Congratulations.

Greasy side down.

Refreshing post, by the way.

 

@blairandgretchen , agreed. Rarely do people come back to 'high five' us'ns. . . more often to complain, as they 'oop's'd' . . . or just hated "where they were" altogether. KUDOS, @BostonTanker .... keep on keeping on!

 

Next time drivers start posting those horrible negative remarks and trying to discourage you; ask them "If it's so bad, why are you still driving?"

 

Just chiming in because I'm in the mood to type. I could state so many negatives about driving truck that it would make driving truck seem like hell on earth. I'm still driving because it fits me...period. If driving fits you, you can't imagine yourself doing anything else. You would rather die than do anything else.

 

Many truckers aren't happy unless their griping about something. Seems to be part of the culture.
