How long have you been a truck driver
#12
Started 1978 till 1984, got off the road to watch my kids grow up, went into the professional sports industry, got paid quite well to attend NASCAR races, NFL and MLB events and was NEVER at home.......sold my company to IMG and retired in late 2003, here I am again driving OTR and loving every minute of it.........I use to pay more in taxes and tips than I'm making now, but $$$'s isn't everything, I'm happier now than I've been in 20-years of wearing a coat-n-tie and shinny shoes........I know people who make over $250.000 annually and are miserable and spiritually bankrupt.......it AIN'T how much $$$'s you make, it's what you do with what you do make, thats a FACT.

:roll:Mattc............I know many people who are many years chronologically younger than me...........but mentally much older......age is all in the head, in my opinion.....I'm 56 and when people start talking that getting old crap about themselves, I get the hell away from that negative gibberish. I cannot and will not be around negative people or people who have no sense of humor, that take life WAY too serious.

After seeing some of the responses.
I think I should have put between 10 and 20, and more than 20 as my choices.
