Need another bubble in the middle of the 2 main ovals: Truckers' wives~!

Hmmmm.

Annie, does that mean you consider truckers' wives to be outside normal?

Oooooooh, the pressure........

....'n me, three! Make room in the peanut gallery!

Awriiiiiight! Good deal.

This is newly impressive to perceive you as a man of great pith.

Or maybe there's just some sleep to catch up on, double whammy with the clocks going forward

Marc Lee hopefully you had a great first day!

I did, thanks!

Marc!

Get some sleep!

Welcome to Trucking Truth, Falcon4Lyfe. getting started up with training! Looking forward to following along with your journal.

Rob D., great idea! I downloaded and like this for followup. Thanks to you and Daniel B. once more for all that meticulous work!

I don't post a lot of the day to day operations because LTL (local) has always been very discouraged here. Though it is difficult, I've done it, Rob T has done it and I think few others but just not worthwhile to post since the OVERWHELMING mantra is to go OTR. Is it easier? Yes. But it doesn't fit all lifestyles.

and Daniel B. responded:

Exactly. OTR serves a good purpose in getting you that needed experience but if you actually want to maintain a family life then its not viable. But I would not recommend it to a rookie.

I hear you guys and hopefully, that's understood. Good to hear.

When I started looking at trucking a year ago, an initial big draw was an LTL carrier recruiting women for a training program in the northeast region where I have family. For now, this has become a future potential instead of a starting point for me, as I've learned more here about what's involved along the learning curve.

TT has a core mission but is enhanced, imho, by discussions of tracks other than OTR. Unless overtly discouraged not to, Auggie, why don't you consider posting more about LTL? Caveats duly noted. Maybe you could start up a site LTL niche. I would bring my popcorn for the front row and I bet the stadium would be filled!

Think I like the title as much as the pic!

Thought this was a great pic.

A bigger thing I think about are Zombies.
