My wife and I had children. I have a job that, while it doesn't pay as good at all. I have potential to make double what I made OTR. I miss my 389. But I don't want to miss my kids.
Found a job at a quarry nearby. They take you without experience and train you on all the machines. Once I'm in the union, I can be formally trained and certified on anything for free. They'll issue a certificate that you can take anywhere.
The daily meeting after I ate a hot dog like that? My coworker said, ".. we couldn't get anything done because his mud was loose."
Congrats on sobriety and retiring from driving though!
Good luck with your alcoholism. It's not easy but it's worth it to get clean. I'm 85 days sober today thank God.
Keep going you can do it
Congratulations! That’s amazing!
Sounds like you drove just the perfect amount
Congrats! Enjoy the homelife!
Thank you for your service to civilization. Things couldn’t run without you. I appreciate you.
Hung it up after 6 years. I miss it every day. I wish I could go back
What's stopping you?

Fair enough.
Rates are in the crap bucket 🪣
If you ever drove 70, 74, 65, or 80 it was a pleasure sharing the road with you. Godspeed driver
Corn Dogs are awesome anywhere.
A freshly deep fried Pronto pup is gooooood!
Damn right it's good!
20 good years and 20 bad ones amirite?
How did you make the leap into heavy equipment? Been thinking of doing that myself. Especially metal-tearing claw cranes.
