Good for you.Delivered my last load this AM and turned the truck in. Fck this OTR sh*t. Pay isn't great when you consider the hours worked and the lifestyle is miserable. Fighting to park, fighting your clock, running 14 hours on 6 hours of lousy sleep, showering two or three times a week, eating overpriced truckstop garbage.
You're entirely at the mercy of a dispatcher who works in an air conditioned office 5 miles from his house from 9-5 Monday to Friday. The closest he's ever come to driving a truck is that one time he rented a u-haul to pickup a foosball table he bought on Craigslist. They are so displaced from reality it's a joke.
It was a good learning experience, glad I did it. Got to see some cool things and haul some interesting stuff. No way I could do it for any length of time though. I'll find some local stuff to haul and get paid by the hour.
Ah, you are coming to the "yellow" side...Delivered my last load this AM and turned the truck in. Fck this OTR sh*t. Pay isn't great when you consider the hours worked and the lifestyle is miserable.

No, no I think he intends to stay on the side tossing pee bottles, not the ones picking them up.Ah, you are coming to the "yellow" side...
Does anybody in the burg distribute small engine products? Thinking Stihl, cub cadet, and mtd.Ah, you are coming to the "yellow" side...
Yea, OTR isn't for everyone (really not with what you delt with) & there's no shame jumping from it. Don't forget to check out Fuhrer to become the beer man.
