Not trying to slam anyone or anything but for the life of me I will never understand why some people feel a NEED to work after they retire . Life is so short and precious to have to keep working . Move over and let the younger generation have the jobs . If you are retired , they need the money not you . Hobbies , charities , travel - there are hundreds of things to occupy some ones time .
When your done trucking what are you going to do?

A lot of older drivers enjoy what they do. If they're healthy and physically able to continue their careers and be an asset to their company there's no reason why they should be pushed aside by a younger person.
Most of the older drivers I know worked their way up from bad jobs to better ones to good ones to whatever job they plan on keeping until they retire. They earned their job...and they're still earning it.
I don't know how old you are but if you have the time I'll let you spend a week or so with some of our senior drivers. I doubt seriously you could stay up with them, on the road or on the ground.
Have some patience,kid. Some day if you're lucky you'll be the one listening to the younger drivers...the ones with more mouth than actual experience...complain about you old guys.Feedman and Brettj3876 Thank this. -
Still holding out hope to find that ice rink job, driving the Zamboni in exchange for free skating.
I thought going back to trucking this year was going to be a temporary thing. However, age discrimination is limiting my non-trucking industry options.
Also, I'm starting to realize: I think I REALLY DO like trucking. -
I'm done on Monday..for a week anyway.
