What do you the "other" 14 hours a day?

All I think is "buffalo bob"

 

It call time management Manage your time you do not need to do the reset.

If you do not enjoy it then get out and find a job you like doing, if yo do not enjoy it why do it?

 

why do you guys not want to be home?at least intermodal you go home. dont you like your families? screw long haul.

 

Let's just face it....''Living'' in a truck stop SUCKS and most people HATE it and can't wait to get driving again....

Years ago it was a wonderful great time...That was back when we had many KOOL truckers...Now it seems like we got Wal-Mart Cashiers driving truck hanging out in the TV Lounge watched season 3 of Gay Treck....

 

Some of us, like myself, love being on the road. I love driving, sure I miss my family but I'm out here getting paid to do what I live for.

You say screw long haul, that's fine, you don't have to do that job, ill gladly take it. I was local from January to may. Hated every minute of it. I enjoy sleeping in my truck at night, not my bed at home.

Home isn't where my heart is, this truck, this machine of steel and chrome is what makes me happy. Hearing this Diesel engine roar under the hood gets my blood pumping.

I got diesel and oil running through my veins, I need the open road. I'm a highway junkie, I need to chase that old white line.

Being home every night isn't something I want, not yet anyway. This is the first job I've had where I don't think of what I'm doing as work, but pleasure, or joy riding. I enjoy what I do, until I have to tarp a load, that part sucks.

As a single male in his 20s, I couldn't care less about being home. I'd rather see the country and make money. Probably one of the main reasons I want to get into this industry. Sit there and live in the truck and save money away.

 

You have to make the money to save the money...You will only get to ''see'' the country from the Hoghways and Byways...Just Saying

 

one day i hear OTR pays poverty? now it saves money? makes no sense. whatever. everyone lives their life the way they want it. now if your a o/o then otr can be ok. because you can make the big $$ my uncle has his own authority and he is up there. but he stays out 15 days at a time. i get home sick. you guys are tough

 

not to mention truck stops are a rip off.
