Took a few days off 😌🛋️
Chillin’. Vibin’. Mindin’ my own business.

Checked to see if my Monday load showed up online… 📱👀

It didn’t. It NEVER existed.

So true.

I've done this job. There's much about #OverTheRoad trucking that I enjoyed a great deal. Plenty I didn't, too.

The timing was bad. I got into trucking because the #DotComBubble took my job & all my prospects. But I still had teen kids at home. Very hard to be away 95% of the time & expect them to thrive & behave.
