    Yeah it's just not for me. More power to you if it's for you or someone like that, it's just not my bag. I've given it a fair shot I have, and I went in wanting it to really work I did, but it's just not for me. It's not for everyone.

    Not shi##ing on you. But food service is 100 times worse than LTL. Every delivery is an inside delivery. You get to break down tens of thousands of lbs of boxes and rotate their crap inside of a freezer.

    I’m I’ll PM you. It’s not so much that LTL is bad it’s self. I want to be home every night or day whatever the case maybe.

    No kidding. It's almost like beverage where it is all overnight and you have a 2 AM start time or something. If you are willing to work those hours you might as well just do LTL linehaul. At least that way you can sit on your arse all night and stare out the window.

    Suffice to say it wasn’t so much the company or the work, but other circumstances that I’ll leave it up to him to disclose.
