I have been off the road for a month and a half. I moved into a Safety Coordinator position at a completely separate company. I find myself having a difficult time sitting behind a desk and only going out to do random checks on employees. I love the freedom of movement I have now, not stuck in truck stops, having an easier time cooking without much hassle, but I long for the road and my truck.
How do you do it? How do you manange to eat good on the road?
Trucking to me is a a job and a career. I tried to understand why it a lifestyle.
Trucking to me is a a job and a career. I tried to understand why it a lifestyle. I been trucking for two months now and I still see it as a job and a career. When I think about it, some truckers just don't enjoy it like I do. I defined lifestyle of someone working a 12 hour shift at a freaking chicken factory or some other factories. I been there so I know what it's like. I didn't had no life. Only time I had to myself were 3 hours. After them three hours I had to sleep and do the 12 all over again. Now I am a truck driver I have more time then I ever did to myself. So to sum it up, the only way trucking is not a lifestyle to me because of the background I come from. I love what I do now.
This is mostly a rant. But I'm so sick and tired of pulling into a truck stop and seeing a subway,a Arby's, mc Donald's etc...I mostly eat at smaller truck stop diners and things like that. But obviously it's not always an option. Cooking in the truck is not a great option to me. Mostly due to cleaning etc. I don't know, I feel like we as truckers should stop giving money to fast foods placed in truck stops. And maybe they'll start putting some better food in there.

It’s life on the road. Maybe that’s why truckers are more prone to loneliness than workers in other industries.
It’s life on the road. Maybe that’s why truckers are more prone to loneliness than workers in other industries. But it depends on the person; I think, rather than on his profession.
