Default Thinking about getting out of trucking.

It was fun and challenging learning how to drive. The reward was being able to work for one of the best LTL companies as a new driver - Yellow. However, with the economic slow down and my safety at stake, I think that it's time to move on to something else. I don't blame Yellow or the Teamsters for the way that things are (they could be better). I like living a lot more than I like driving a truck and being at the bottom of the board doesn't give me the freedom to pick and choose who I drive with. I could care less how much money I'm being paid. You can't spend a thing while taking a dirt nap.

I've been looking at taking a couple of courses and freight brokering came to mind. Does anyone have any experience with the logistical side of trucking?
