My husband is an OTR truck driver. I am considering a career change (hate sitting behind a desk) and he suggested trucking. It is something I have thought about for a little while, but never got seriously into it until now. As a women in trucking, do you face more challenges than your male counterparts? Just curious if there's any difference.
Also, as a note, since I've been asked this a few times already, no, my husband and I will not be working together if I go forward and get my CDL. If we drove as a team there's a very good chance we'd kill each other!! Lol.
