    Hey all,

    Checking in for first intro post here.. been in trucking since 2016 as a driver and broker on and off. After being treated some kind of ways by some brokers as a driver, decided to be the difference and treat all drivers with respect and dignity, keeping the golden rule/ Christ’ commands.

    Currently back to driving with 4+ years experience. Here to help, fellowship and contribute any way I can with this community.

    Thanks and God bless!

    Good deal! So how does one go from driver to broker and back to driver? Do you mean you just worked for a broker or actually were one?

    Welcome to the Forum!

    I for one....nominate you to be our new Forum Chaplain!

    We desparately need some trucking "demons" exorcised -- with those who:

    • wear flipflops/boxer shorts/tank tops/pajamas/similar -- outside of the cab
    • bathe at truck stop fuel islands/bathroom sinks
    • park right beside interstates (how creative)
    • apply/sign up for CDL school/training -- when they clearly have no business being here (some people are just not CDL material -- sorry)
    • the stupid/incompetent list just goes on and on.....
    Are you up for such an incredibly daunting challenge?....:dontknow:

    Hey Lenny,

    Hope all is well brother!
    One of my buddies worked at a medium sized brokerage and referred me. I’ve worked at 3 different brokerages as a carrier sales rep, a customer sales rep and did both at the 3rd place. Brokered mostly dry freight, with some reefer and flatbed loads too.

    I really enjoy driving and traveling.. even though the hours are better/less as a broker, where/how I worked at least, was extremely stressful and would get burnt out/ road sick lol (opposite of home sick)

    Cheers!

    Hey Lual,

    thank you!
    Nomination accepted! lol
    That’s quite the challenge though, might need to recruit some co chaplains to take that one on :) welp, one not so smart driver at a time, we can change the all the roads, stops etc, I suppose…

    Peace and love!

    Hi Mr REO,

    Agreed! Didn’t mean to get all religious here…
    I’m truly not a fan of religion myself, unless it’s looking after widows and helping orphans.

    Jesus saved my life from the eternal death after the my body dies, many of my friends and families too, and I believe I won something better than the power ball, also have unlimited supply, so would be very selfish and more, not to share, that’s all :)

    thanks for the link, might share more good news there soon!

    all the best, sir!
