to all drivers with no ties. how long did it take to get used to the lifestyle?

Takes a while to get through the divorce and set up the child support ..

 

Crunches, squats, pushups (since I got my automatic it's been much easier), pullups. I keep a few weights also. I also like to walk or bike. Conway installed a rack for me so I could enjoy my bike. Makes getting veggies easier as I can bike to Wal-Mart and pick them up.

 

Heh, I put my feet on the bed and hands on the front seats for pushups.

 

After 10 years Im still not sure Im used to it ,
I'd much rather be at home
with my family.

 

Well said. Many people never get used to it. It's a very rough lifestyle.

 

I've been homeless, slept in my truck months at a time, traveled the country, etc... OTR should be pretty easy for me.

 

Keep us posted!

 

It did not take me long at all to get accustomed to not wearing a tie at work.

Everyone's experience will be different. Much depends upon personal circumstance and experience.

No wife, kids and grand kids out of state... took about six months to find the groove.

 

Some people get used to it right away. Others never get used to it and give it up. Still others just get sick of it and leave the industry.
