What Thing(s) Improved Your Trucking Experiences

Stopped running regional, and took home every night jobs.

 

Different trailer, different job. Miles gets you experience. Keep some cash in your pocket, you might need it. What happens on the road stays on the road.

 

• I stopped pulling boxes--and started pulling tankers.
• I stopped running the northeastern US.
• I got out of the reefer business.
• I left Schneider.

3. Having social skills. So many think that being antisocial is a plus, it’s not. Being sociable will allow you to network and open other opportunities that you would never know about otherwise.
2. Dirty dancing. If you can cut a rug, go to a club…every woman in the place will line up to dance. “Can I take you home with me, Trucker?” Please be gentle…
1. A largecar. You haven’t trucked until you drive a truck with real performance.

 

Simple Fact
Really men don't dance or say much
And dancers don't roll in large cars
End of story

 

Perhaps you should get out more?

Give me a fricking break. Live a little.

 

Growing up .....

I went from thinking I knew it all, and doing things my way. Paid lots of fines, been placed out of service so many times early in my career.

Took another driving job when I was 28 and realized how little I actually knew. Learned a lot in the 2 years I did OTR work.

13 years later, running local, home daily and I'm still learning daily. And I realize there's a lot of people that are a lot smarter in certain areas then I'll ever be.

Also, realizing there are some things I just cannot change, so you learn to make the best of it.
