    Hi,
    I'm Double R. I'm a nutcase and need mental help. I enjoy foodservice to much. So much so, that instead of taking a job in the oilfields and getting out of it, I have opted to stay in it and start working at a new company this monday(somebody shoot me, lol). I have been doing this type of work for ten years and I'm only 37(ouch, my back).

    I live just outside of Pittsburgh,PA in a community called Brentwood. I was born and rasied in the Pittsburgh area. I am married(going on six years now) and we have one son, he is five. I enjoy camping, fishing, outdoors, technology, and history.








    Damm, I feel like I just wrote an ad for e-harmony, lol.

    I'm Moneyman and I'm from Isanti,MN just north of the Twin Cities. Been driving for almost 7 years and been doing mostly foodservice. I'm only 25. Ive also done freight but I always find myself coming back to pull these reefer trailers.

    I enjoy 4 wheeling, Snowmobiling, fishing, camping, and being with my son who is 1 year old (hes my life)

    I'm Pflash from Pittsburgh, PA and I'm a driver for Lipari Foods. I started with this company on 01/30/12, but I have been driving for 21 years or so. I got my CDL at age 18 while working for Coca Cola, and I have also done tours of duty at Supervalu (best job ever, but lack of work forced me to leave) and UPS (as a part timer). I will celebrate my 40th birthday this year with Mrs. Pflash and my twin 12 year old daughters, all of whom I love with all of my heart. I enjoy spending time with my family, riding my Harley (only been out twice this year! Ugh...), going on vacation, and Steelers football.

    I keep busy around the house and I also maintain a couple of rental properties in the area, which is supplementing my retirement. I want to work the truck for 10 more years and then hopefully find an inside job with benefits. Trucking has changed so much in the last 20+ years - so much that I want to get out of it!

    Hello all I'm BountyHunter. I'm living in Melbourne, Fl and just started driving for Cheney Brothers back in May. This is my second go around driving food service, my first was with Abbott Foods up in Ohio about 10 years ago. I loved the job then but we were bought out and a lot of us got laid off due to it. I've driven otr, intermodel, and fuel delivery plus a few other things here and there but I loved the food service and fuel delivery the most. Must be the pay I like as those two jobs seem to pay the best. I'm 44 and newly married as of December to a woman I have known since high school. Couldn't get her to go out with me back then...LOL. We have 2 dogs and 3 kids, although one of them is out on his own now. I enjoy spending time with my wife and children and doing a little amateur competition shooting (haven't found a place here in Florida to really do that yet though). I also in the last year discovered I like playing on pool leagues. I'm not the best at that yet but I am getting better. Finally being a Buckeye fan I love OSU football and can't wait to watch them beat up Mich. this year.

    I'm a nobody.. I worked in Construction for 20+yrs... Have a great Wife for almost 20yrs this Oct.,
    Three Sons, a new dog, and bad breath. I can be an arse hole sometimes....but, it gets better with patience...lol
    You guys have a fast pace job... I always wish the cards lead me to your occupation. Out of all the trucking jobs..Food Service makes the day go fast, while meeting many people.

    well my

    name is ted ward and I carry a card
    I know I look fat but my body is hard

    you see I've spent six years in the grocery game
    lifting ten tons a day I put most folks to shame

    I'm sick and I'm tired and I'm constantly wired
    I do a good job trying not to get fired

    If I got some spare time and I'm feeling blue
    I read the truckingboards to see what's up with you
