I am Daniel.

Hi, Everyone.

I'm 25, live alone in a shoddy one-bedroom apartment in east county San Diego, work as an IT Business Analyst (point of sale, materials management, promotions and events) for a local Native American resort , love music, riding my motorbike, staring at the moon, swooning the ladies, telling stories, and have been thinking pretty much non-stop about becoming a truck driver for the past four weeks.

It's strange. So very strange. When I was 15, I wanted to be a Fighter Pilot. When I was 18, I wanted to be an Accounting Controller. When I was 22, I wanted to be a Research Astronomist. And now I'm 25 and want to be a Trucker.

Out of all of those wants, though... this is the one that snagged me completely out of nowhere. Really hooked into me.

It was the furthest thought from my mind, never having given it a thought in my life...

Dan the Trucker.

I don't know if I'll actually pursue it. Income-wise, it's a few steps down from where I'm at presently. Desire-wise, it's a few steps up from where I'm presently at. I'm still weighing these things out, trying to see what it is that would make me happy. Happiness is the only reason I'm here. What will make me happy?

I think I may have found it.

I'm not looking for a new job. I'm not looking for something to change up my usual routine.

I am looking for a new way of life.

I am Daniel.

hey everyone

I have been registered here for months and just found this thread so I will babble on about myself a bit: I am an artistic woman who has worked at mcdonalds,gas stations, book stores, factories, you name it..BUT no trucking yet. I love winter nights indoors, reading, art, movies, shooting,( yes, I own a few guns) working on my vehicles, working on my house. I also collect dolls, sew, and do most of the girlie stuff except cook. I hate cooking, anyway,we all know that men make the best chefs. I am at a crossroads in my life, since I crossed into my 40's my tolerance for crappy jobs has dropped off to zero. So I am hunting for my next career. Hopefully, its not too late to start over.

thanks for reading,
Kate

New to the Forum, been driving 10 years or so, I'm a local driver I haul fuel here in New England, mostly heating oil this time of the year, as you can imagine being in the Northeast i'm very busy this time of the year. Many of you might already know, Massachusetts roads suck, the drivers suck, and traffic sucks, saving the OTR stuff for closer to retirement, when the kids are gone and the wife and I can pack up and tour the country a few years on someone elses dime.. company just bought me a new truck Into eagle with an ISX cumming 565, happy with it so far although i've been a cat man like most..
