I guess i was fortunate starting northeast regional but my cpm wasnt spectacular i just brought a very strong work ethic and learned how to make the absolute most of my schedule which is very involved and i should post how i accomplished what i did although i admit i had moments ar around 6 months in when i became top producer in a company of about 70 and i let it kinda get to my head Needless to say i was properly put in my place here at tt and like a know it all i went away mad for a few months but the words spoken to me stuck with me and i came back humbled and i believe now 3 yrs later ive grown to be what i consider to be a complete trucker and i attribute alot of that too tt even if i didnt like everything i heard it almost always went that way. I guess my point is i was kinda where this guy was once and i wish people like myself then or him now would just swallow pride and listen cause without the experience one real screw up is most likely the end of a potentially life changing carreer. Sorry for babbling im not well spoken but im sure yall catch my drift

Id def say you nailed it with your final statement brett unfortunately by pure nature of the job truck driving seems to push people to a whole new level of lazy due to the lack of exercise time and ambition ive certainly had my moments mostly due to extreme weather but weve just gotta keep our heads about us and push to do the same things every single day till its not even a thought that we HAVE to get out of the truck for some things we HAVE to do thorough pre and post trips we have to check tire pressures (number one reason for flats) and we have to take ten seconds to inspect trailer heights before just backing under them and lets not forget to bend over and get your flashlight on those jaws to make sure they fully engage too ive seen plenty of trailers droped due to that lack of a 3second inspection
