Title: 20 YEARS In Trucking!
Post by: Itchigo on January 15, 2013, 08:15:40 PM

This year will mark the 20th in my trucking career. I've seen some amazing things along the way, met some interesting people. I've probably done over 1.5 million miles too. A lot of things have changed in that time. It used to be fun for me, but as I felt the icy hand of the DOT over my shoulder at every turn it became less fun and I went into spotting. Just thought I'd share this with you. :)

Yes I did. ;D I was unsure of myself handling something that big as I saw nothing but accidents prior to getting my license. But Rukia told me to shut the hell up and do it. She was right. :)
