For me, it’s not about the money. It’s about my sanity. Form the moment I leave the yard till I return, it’s like a non stop NASCAR race on the highway on day time line. I have learned that over the road truckers, not all of them, but so many are complete assholes. Cut you off, brake check you, play the slow down and speed up game, won’t let you pass. We are the slowest LTL line trucks, period! My truck runs at 64mph most of the time, just can’t hit 65mph. Always getting stuck behind slower trucks, so,passing is not an option. Traffic! All the time, have brief moments of just me and no one else around, but it’s brief. Working longer days for less miles, could get more miles, at night, and get done quicker, make more money sure, but most important is just being able to do my job, in peace, and not so stressed out.
