hes just a fustrated kid tht thinks, living in a shoe box ( with some strange trainer guy at first),, telling off every tom dick and harry he meets that might solve his problems....

give him a few weeks on the road, and he would quit, i think the post partum depression would kick in that" as a truck driver your 2nd class citizen , every1 swears at ya faster and more often then you could ever see possable"and the fact that no matter what you do your always wrong...

givin the chance this kid, will actually know what the feelin of the world is outta get me means... oh ya and he will have 70 hrs a week he gets paid to think about it... and another 100 hours of sleeping and eating time to think the world is outta get him...

DAMN , no matter what if any1 sees him searching for companies call the companies and recommend they dont hire him, he will most defintaly kill some1, who is happy with thier life, and has stuff like family they care about.

P.S. he dont need a hospital, maybe some anti depressants, a dream or goal in life and a chance to speak to a pychocologist for a few hours.

 

You came here asking advice and got it..... relax a freakin second and turn down the language.

You do NOT belong behind the wheel of an 80,000 pound vehicle, seems to me you are a time bomb waiting to go off. My guess is with that attitude you wouldn't last through the authority during training anyway.

An awful lot of people here had a crap life and grew up to be resonsible adults, so theres hope for you. I'd suggest councelling.

4roses gave you a caring, almost motherly answer and she always has people best interests at heart.

I may have had a more gentle answer for you but at this point you really don't deserve it.

 

Ok, I told myself, dont reply to this thread.....but hell I never listen to myself anyway.

Here's what I'm reading. This guy is 21 and has had everything handed to him by his parents. Now his parents want him to get his ass out of the house (Oh BTW, you do owe them and you owe them alot) but he has never had a job and he cant afford community college which is a royal steaming crock of manure. You go to your local community college and you seek financial aid. At the same time you meet with a counselor to decided the best course for education and a career.

I"m just wondering what this guy is going to do if or when he has to be stuck in a truck with a insane trainer for two weeks? What is he going to do if/when he is out there solo and he has to sit at a loading dock for 8 hours waiting to be loaded despite he was on time for an appt time.

Whats he going to if he has no load to pu/deliver? And he has sit awhile at some lousy truck stop all day, or has run out of hours and has to do a reset in some lousy town in below freezing temps.

And what is he going to do, based on the small insight into his mental stability, if some car cuts him off in traffic?

Go to college , kid.

 

The first thing you need to do is relax my friend. You need self control. You come on here asking for advice, and all of your posts have been nothing but temper tantrums. You need to show respect in order to get respect. Chill out first, and we will be glad to help you.

 

Wow! Just, wow! This little punk wouldn't make it five minutes at Taco Bell. How's he going to make it six weeks with a trainer? Just another spoiled brat who wants everything without working for it.

"I want it all and I want it now!!!"

Dude, you need to do a whole lot of growing up. You owe your parents everything, like it or not. The world doesn't owe you anything, like it or not.

Stay out of the trucking business until you get a bit of maturity in your system.

 

As a parent of three adults, I would give you this advise. Since you are in a hurry to get out of the house, you clearly need some moral boosting and self image enhancement, I suggest the U.S. Job Corps. There is one near enough to you and you can go to their website for info. You can train to be a Truck Driver, you will get housing, food, training, license and experience. When you leave you will be older, well trained, should be confident and desirable to employers if you have done a good job, had a good attitude, etc. It is probably one of the best options for one in your situation going barring the military.

 

Might consider enlisting in the Military. It would get you out of your home, away from your parents, allow you to develop marketable skills, open up other educational opportunities, and you would not have time to cry in your beer!!

Your attitude certainly needs adjusting, and they can help with that, too!!

I agree with the others here; you have absolutely no business behind the wheel of an 80,000# missle.

You make our old lost friend "Road Runner9501" look like Wally Cleaver from "Leave It To Beaver"

 

Actually, there's nothing wrong with staying with your parents at this age. I'm 19 and stay with my parents. If I can drive OTR, my only bills will be my food or internet bill (if I have one). With no house bill or anything like that, all that money will go straight to the bank. 8)

(There's a guy in our truckdriving class who is 24; also out of the Marines, and he still lives at home, and he's not ashamed of it one bit. And he's doing real good for himself too, so living with your parents is not neccesarily a bad thing.)

Not at all. I lived with my folks until I was 30. Saved up $40,000 to put a nice down payment on my first house, then I got married :lol:

 

This is beyond sad; it is downright pathetic!!

I remember when the Siagon fell, and the Vietnam War ended back in 1975. The U.S. Government allowed many Vietnamese refugees to enter the U.S. Many people were of the belief that they would arrive and clog the Welfare offices.

Boy, were they ever wrong about that. For the most part, they went to work, often working long hours for little pay. Many of their children took to the classrooms, outperformed their American counterparts,and grew up to become highly educated, hard working professionals.

I don't know what country your family immigrated from, but as far as the "racisim" excuse is concerned, I would venture to say that they most likely came here, and brought you here in search of a better life.

I'm not saying that they were or are perfect parents, but apparently, they are providing you with shelter and food, and so far, you have repaid them by dropping out of college, and copping out of life.

One thing is abundantly clear: As much as you hate your parents, you do not hate them to the point of refusing to accept their food or their shelter!!

You need to seek out a good therapist; one who can help you find that "inner child" within you, and give both you, and your "inner child", the swift kick in the ass that both of you deserve.

Seriously; go talk to a military recruiter. There really IS help available, providing that you are willing to help yourself. If you are NOT willing to help yourself, and learn to sit on your own butt, instead of whinnig because the world that you are so mad at refuses to sit on your butt for you, then your are in no way a suitable candidate for a driving career.
