Hey samael9,
I have been one the "lukers that you referred to. Just wanted to let you know that I have been reading and enjoying you posts. Your positive attitude towards things is something that lacks in everyday life and not just the trucking industry. I myself left a very well paying (triple digit most years with bonus) management job with Firestone for the past 11 years due to what was becoming a very unethical company business plan from the company. Now I am waiting to begin my CDL training with Maverick. I hope that I am making the right career choice but I am at a time in life to do it. Anyways I just wanted to pop in and say "Hi" and that your posts are refreshing compared to some on this forum.
Best of luck and continued success,
Popeye
