I have a family. 450 a week is not enough to survive today. My lifestyle is what it needs to be for my family to be comfortable. A lot of what I do is to ensure that I can retire sooner rather than later and it's very calculated. Please do not make assumptions about my personal life. I understand that you get your jollies telling war stories nobody else will listen to, but please avoid discussing my life and what I need to do.
There is no jollies gotten.
No assumptions made. Your words, 450 unemployment is not enough. Therefore you are not free from wahtever is costing you more than that.
My story here is simply this. YOU are to go get that trailer if you want to keep your job. If you quit or otherwise refuse to on a workaround you wont do to go get it when told to... well...
That lifestyle will be at risk.
Driving is the most dangerous situation to be in around the USA. You can plan for retirement in the future and all the things and so on. Leave out of the yard one day and 10 miles later clobber that rig into the wall or some other object and lose your life or kill a family or get maimed to where you must have 24/7 care.
Or trip over something on the dock and end up with 20,000 dollars in trauma billing etc.
Ive lived it, Ive seen it happen. Ive seen people crushed, killed or otherwise ruined in a variety of ways and MANY have families, children, houses, boats and so on.
The worst things happen to drivers who are hauled off in cuffs. Now they have a problem and no one to help them for the time being and its just got very expensive.
Assumptions No. Real world from what I have seen other drivers ruined by a moment when something comes up and takes away all of that future.
When I started driving school so many years ago, I made one important decision. Its me only. No one else. And I kept that always.
