Some of us like the freedoms and dont have a wife saying I have to be home every night.
My kids are grown and I tossed the wife to the curb.
Let us enjoy our lives too, ok?

You have to feel sorry for belpre, Bumper. He feels less than a real driver because he drives local. That is why he and the other feel they need to put otr drivers down with every post. They feel inferior to otr drivers. Think of it this way belpre, you are still driving a truck. I consider all truck drivers the same, whether they drive local or otr. I don't see the need to put you boys down. It is obvious that you do enough of that to yourselves without me contributing. Just look yourself in the mirror in the morning and tell yourself that "I am a truck driver." Pretty soon you will grow to believe it. It doesn't matter that many otr drivers earn more than local drivers. Some locals may do better than those just starting out otr, but those with experience do very well with their paychecks. I am happy with the money I can make otr. I don't need the pay cut to go local right now. :wink: If I went local my income would drop dramatically. Now, you can brag all you want about your big paychecks, but I doubt that they will be more than those with a few years experience otr. I like more mental stimulation than I can get driving local. Local is SOOOO boring!!!
