I guess I never thought of my kid brother to be the type to spend so much of his time behind the wheel of a large sized eighteen wheeler, but apparently he has decided to start looking for truck driving jobs via the Internet. He has all ready taken all the classes necessary and has gotten the proper licenses in order to do so.
Even in today’s economic struggle, there are a lot of “drivers wanted” ads to pick from and he has been spending a good amount of time checking them all out to see which company would be best suited for his needs and wants. It is a good thing that he has an understanding wife that will tolerate his absence while trucking on down the road. They don’t have any kids so that isn’t an issue. I don’t think that if they did have kids that he would even consider such a move. Kids need their Dads around and being a truck driver would take him away from their needs way too much. It is bad enough having to leave his new bride behind each long distance trip. Who knows maybe she will consider tagging along once in a while in order to be with him more as well as seeing parts of the world that she would never get the opportunity to see by staying home all the time.
