What has been your worst experience on the road?

When we got back together, we didn't necessarily know what made us happy. But we knew what made us unhappy. That's an important thing to learn.

 

Yesterday was the 10-year anniversary of our second marriage, so I think it took this time.

 

Hmm that’s a good way to look at things, know what you mean

 

You’ll both be very happy, the older you get. I found this out. I think we just ran out of things to argue about. It’s good to be with someone you know well, and visa versa. It means a lot, now. Got to look at the whole picture.Looking back, it seems very clear. Glad to hear you didn’t throw it all away.

 

Yeah I can say it sucks not having anyone who truly knows you, dude’s a lucky guy

 

I think seeing a dead driver laying next to his drivers side steps at the Russel Road TA , of a apparent Heart Attack.
Never have forgot burnt into my memory bank forever.

 

Ha! I have a friend ( he's retired now) who has been married 7 times. One of those he was dumb enough to marry twice. I guess some people are just slow learners.

 

I watched several deputies bust out a window and go inside a parked tractor at a TS in Texas back in the 90s. A long process that took a while. Ended with the EMTs taking the man off to the morgue I guess. I have seen other deaths over the years. It's a simple fact, stay in this business long enough you will too. My father watched a driver shoot and kill another at a small TS. Started as an argument on the CB, that time the other person was far from a Radio Rambo. Funny thing, my father was never called to be a witness.

 

Losing a family member , getting the call if I want to say good bye and being a thousand miles from home . I hated myself and this #### truck for a couple of days , that one hurt really bad .

 

Yeah ill piggyback off that . Happened to me back in february. Got the call my 16 year old cousin died in car accident and 2 of his friends. I was in rochelle , il at the petro ..... Somehow i made it home to arizona for the funeral. The thing was i had turned down atleast 5 different loads and 2 more got cancelled before i finally booked a load to california... if i wouldve taken any of those 7 other loads, there was no way i couldve got home. And that all happened before i got the call. Crazy how stuff just happens like that.
