<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hamboner, post: 2569973, member: 37337&quot;]Everybody thinks being an Owner Operator is the cream of the crop.&nbsp; Most people don&#039;t have the self discipline to succeed as an O/O.&nbsp; You have to be willing to work yourself in the dirt.... things get slow sometimes and when the good times are rolling you have to make up for the bad!&nbsp; Truth be told most O/O make less than company drivers that work for decent companies.&nbsp; You pay your own insurance, workmans comp and you don&#039;t have any retirement unless you pay for it yourself.&nbsp; There are exceptions, but the main benefit to O/O is being able to call your own shots.&nbsp; I would recommend someone driving for a while and maybe driving for a smaller co. for a driver that owns several trucks, so you get an idea what its like to make decisions.&nbsp; Most of your O/O that are successful are working for small mom and pop trucking co.&nbsp; These guys pulling for the mega carriers aren&#039;t making squat![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
