Random Thoghts...

I was supposed to know by freshman year... that obviously didn't work....

I wanted to be an architect when I was a freshmen. Then I wanted to be an anesthesiologist, psychiatrist, and now I want to be nothing.

If you're like me you'll change your mind quite often.

My sister wants me to learn Spanish, move to California, and become a cop. Because you can make twice the amount as a cop there as you can here.

It also costs twice as much to live out there!

LOL. Probably more than twice as much. You could always commute

Seriously though TG, you could work at the Coalinga State Hospital. It's rather cheap out there - you can easily get a house for somewhere in the low $200,000s and that particular state hospital pays especially well. It's about a 90 minute drive to Fresno or Paso Robles from Coalinga (I think).

I don't even know. My teachers have been trying to convince my to be a lawyer since 6th grade... they say I'm good at arguing. My friends want me to be a cop. And I don't know yet.

If that's the case try something completely different - you should be...

Gas probably be ten bucks a gallon by then

I'm gonna say that the only option I like out of those is journalist.... The rest I HIGHLY doubt will happen.

Chef - I can't cook.. and what I can I hate doing.
Truck Driver -... just... no.
Teacher - I am too nice. I wouldn't be able to control the people i was teaching.

There are thousands of female truck drivers out there. But, with the cost of fuel, there are hundreds of male and female drivers quiting daily.

I always assumed they were mostly men but never really paid attention...either that or I'm sexist or something.

WAIT, they have to pay for the gas themselves!??!

My brother's ex-girlfriend's brother's wife was a truck driver.

I seriously thought about being a truck driver, I love driving, but everyone would always say "oh, it's dangerous to be out there alone, blah, blah, blah...". My friend and her husband drove as a team.
By the way, I miss too!!!!!!!!!

hey iluvpudge!

Hey TG!!!

Hey you two!

hi bobrob2004.1!

2004.1???

If they are an owner-operator, they are paying for the gas.


I have a friend who is one.



Sometimes his wife rides with him.

Whoa Whoa Whoa,

What gs?

I think drivers that work for over the road trucking companies don't; but i am not sure about that.

Oh, I dont think I will be driving trucks. Of the list provided by Catbox, I would be a Journalist.

If they work for a company, they are given fuel allowance cards. Depending on the company, the allowance does pay for all the fuel, but not all companies pay for all the fuel because fuel keeps going up so fast.

Truck drivers are a very interesting group. If you want to learn more about what they go through, to get the goods to your stores, you can hear the AMERICA'S TRUCKIN' NETWORK on WLW700 Cincinnati, over the internet:

Every night 12 midnight - 5 am ET.
MON-FRI NIGHTS - Steve Sommers CLICK HERE
SAT-SUN NIGHTS - Bubba Bo CLICK HERE

AFTER GOING TO THE SITE CLICK ON THE LISTEN LIVE BUTTON

THE SHOW IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON XM Channel 173

I'm not a trucker, but I have listened to this show for at least 5 years and have learned lots about how the things that truckers go through end up costing us also!

YOU CAN ALSO LISTEN TO PODCASTS OF THE SHOW by CLICKING HERE

I just wonder if we'll be reverting to trains instead of trucks!

That is what the truckers think will happen. Then local or regional trucks will deliver to the stores. We are basically going back to the 1930's!

Probably will be traveling more by train as well.

The Tigers on a train! hmmmmmmm
