A few questions and a short story :)
I work in the pharmacy and I have about a couple truckers come thru our pharmacy and today we had a gentlemen come in I would say around he was 50 years old. He was getting a flu shot and started asking me questions what I do on my time off and would I like to travel. I looked at him and said my husband is a truck driver and I drove with him for a while and I love to travel he proceeds to ask why Daniel left a pretty girl like me at home and isn't home with me. I told him.
Sir, I love my husband I might not get to see him when I want but I know that he amazing and a great truck driver, and if I want to go on the road again and travel he's the only person I want to go with. He looks at me and smiles and says he is lucky to have a girl like you that supports her husband and is always by his side, when other women complain that they aren't home enough and that they cheat on their husbands because they need someone there.
I get where he is coming from he's lonely but why do truckers hit on every girl they see? I have some friends that wouldn't mind a truck driver lol.
On another note I'm about 50/50 about going with Daniel as passenger for now then I might learn how to drive but still I'm scared of handling something that big lol

I loved driving with his before. But im scared if handling somthing that big. Daniel berelly trusts me with his "four wheeler". When hes home he shows me how to change gears and let's me drive in a lower gear for a little in the Walmart parking lot. But I'm still scared, what if u crash it or what if somthing bad happens. I know it's common concerns in only 21 and I am terrified of the trucks.

A few questions and a short story :)
Hello, some of you know me as Daniels wife some of you do not, well I am Daniels wife Olga. Daniel has been driving for about a year and a couple months. When he just signed up to trucking I wasn't happy I didn't want him to go. But, as a wife I was being supportive and just stood beside him. I used to work at lowes but when Daniel was passing through Sac going to LA I took a week off and went with him, I liked it so much I quit my job and drove with him for about 3 months. I LOVED IT!!!! The nature the surrounding, the truckers not so much. Daniel and I were walking at a truck stop holding hands and they were still honking at us. Gross. Living with Daniel in a small closet space wasn't easy and I got bored a lot, we sometimes fought for the stupidest stuff, the food wasn't great (didn't have the right cooking pots and stuff.). When I got back after the 3 month adventure I got a job at Walgreen's (where I currently work) But now I want to go back with Daniel I miss driving side by side with him and seeing him more often he misses me and asks me everyday if I can go with him. I am scared to go though, I want to go to trucking but the trucks scare me So, my questions
1) From a ladies point of you is it harder operating a truck?
2) Ladies if you drive with your husband what do you do to pass the time? (Besides bug your husband and read)
3) I'm afraid of something that big, what can you tell me to make me feel more confident?
I think those are all the questions I have for now I think I will come up with more in a short time.
Just to add, Daniel said that if I ever feel nervous about doing anything that he will gladly do it for me. He says he will backup wherever we need to and if it's too hard then only he will do it until I get some experience. He's also becoming a trainer soon and I want him to train me. I feel too vulnerable with a stranger. So if there's anything too hard for me he will do it for me. He assures me that things have changed since last time I was with him. He says he didn't know what he was doing back then but he does now so it'll be less stressful. When we team (if) then we won't be running super hard every week. We want to enjoy the time and not drive as hard as we can. I know he can drive hard and does 8 hours nonstop without a problem but I don't think I will be able to do that. So things will be much easier for me with him around.
Oh and by the way, Daniel, you're not allowed in this thread. I need to hear from others.

So....can we get some updates Ladies in trucking????
Well lets see.... Daniel is trucking I miss him like crazy and I am thinking about going back on the road with him. But to consider a career idk. I am scared that I might crash the truck or worse. Daniel is trying to reassure me that he will teach me and will do the best he can. Then he is trying to point out how much he is going to spoil me (in other words try to lure me in). So.... that's what's going on with me.

Did you buy the phone from a Verizon Store..? I have the Old plan also and don't want to loose it
If you buy your phone from Verizon you will lose your old plan because they will force you to upgrade to a new plan with a new phone. You can buy a new phone on Craigslist or ebay, I bought my samsung s4 on ebay for like 215.

First off samsung is a great company and I love their products. We have a 60 inch tv very thin amazing never had a problem with it. I started out with a iphone 5 then switched to samsung galaxy s4. I like it. If I find something interesting on youtube and I want to watch it on the tv there is a button I press and it transfers straight to the tv, I am glad I switched back to the samsung.
Second, Daniel I didnt drop the phone you made me drop it and it was only 1 phone 1 time and it was your fault. Oh, and we never agreed I was too clumsy for it we sold it for a good profit and I got the iphone 5 when it just came out.
Third, Starcar, you are sweet thank you. Daniel keeps bugging me to go on this site and see what its all about but between working 40 hours a week and school I hardly have time.
Oh and Daniel thank you for not calling me high maintenance. ♥
