Smile hours

How many do I work or how many am I away from home?

Work about 55-60 on my long week and away from home about 90 hours.
Short week work 40 hours and am away 60 hours.

Exclamation

After 26 years of driving ( six years non-union and twenty years union, yes indeed I have been on both sides of the fence from independent contractor, company driver and union company driver hauling anything and everything from saw dust to steel I-beams, beer cans to styrofoam, and I think a little bit of chicken dookie too! )
I'm getting bored and tired of the profession.
Used to get treated like a human being and now it's just turned into a grind ya down till you're wore out and throw you to the curb mentality anymore.

Competition is one thing but the human aspect has gone out the door with all the open door policies.
Now we are faced with foreign competition like low wage drivers from mexico competing for our work here in the U.S. The regulatory agencies are making it to where an American has to jump thru hoops upside down on one leg holding your breath while foreigners have a free run ... I gotta stop it's Sunday and the beautiful sun is shining outside I'm not going to ruin my day with this rant.
But you guys know what I'm trying to say.
Thanks for the forum Jeff, have a nice Sunday!

Life is like a race. You can stand still and do nothing and get nowhere. Walk at a fast or slow pace and get to the finish line and still have enough energy to enjoy the rest of the day. Run and get to the end of the finish line before the ones that walk but you may go home and set in your easy chair for the rest of the day and not get nothing else done. Or run as hard as you can and hope that you make it to the finish line before every one else but your taking a chance on falling down before the finish and not get up or finish and lie on your back and watch the walkers go by and tell you that your the winner as they walk off and enjoy the day. I think I'll walk.
