Seems like if you are currently a O/O you would already know the answer to that question IMO.

Just roll into ANY truck stop and ask the MANY available drivers "How's it going in the Freight hauling world?"
I'm sure you'll get some answers you're not wanting as well as some comments based along the same format, if you don't just get laughed at or ignored for even asking.
