    It makes me wonder if it's going to be 30 years when you see all the abandoned Kmarts, Macy's and now Toys R Us. Hopefully someone can point at some silver lining here.

    I stopped watching truckers YouTube channels around the time I got my license. I figured I owed it to myself to figure it out on my own, without the “benefit” of all the moaning and complaining online.

    4 years ago, I reached up overhead and clicked the CB off.

    I stopped talking to drivers at the lunch counter, and sit as far away as possible on the rare occasions I sit in for a meal. I deflect attempted conversations at the fuel island with drivers by being polite, but curt.

    I have never been happier since I stopped listening to the litany of misery and just focused on my truck, my customers, my job and my life.

    If this was not staged, and the driver didn't die, they have a hell of a story.

    I have no idea one way or another. I don't know when this photo was taken or if maybe it was not photoshopped some. For it to be real I would think this was where it landed after rolling down a hill. I don't see how the driver would have survived either. Either way it is an interesting photo.
