... See yourself as a professional when everyone else sees you as a truck.

Phil if you want others to see you as a professional and not a truck, may I suggest you lose a few pounds, quit wearing the headlight hat and ditch that pocket air horn. Its all in how you present yourself. And quit making motor noises while standing in the fuel desk line!

choose a beverage base on the container opening.

consider a crowded shopping mall as a legit place to rest.

are NOT regulated, yet know every letter in the green regulation book .

slow down to be more productive.

think that driving into the sunset, can be very annoying.

can't find the shipper, despite having 5 navigation systems.

have a teddy bear strap to the jump seat, so you will have someone to talk with.

We had a driver that had a 3 foot tall homer simpson in his passenger seat of the truck

Margin notes in the Next Exit book about important stuff they left out, like trees & laundry facilities. [marking on an atlas is sacrilege!]

If you sleep in your van...even when its parked in your driveway. If you like getting paid to travel and take pictures. If you feel sorry for all the people trapped in whatever city you just left behind.

Can pull into a shipper in your shorts and flip flops and within seconds you step out of the van you're sporting your jeans, boots and safety vest.

Have experienced 80 degree and 10 degree temperatures in the same day

Are so proud of the great job you did by getting that "hot, hot, hot" load delivered on time to find out receiving is closed and nobody will be able to unload you for 4 hours

Pull into a Walmart parking lot and you feel like your home again

Get so frustrated with your GPS because she is just so bossy all the time and you just dont feel like she respects you.

Have the sudden realization that you and the homeless guy sleeping in the car next to you have a whole lot in common

Can give directions in 50 major cities....but not in your home town
When you "correct" weather channel anchors, of the correct pronunciation of a town, in a state, you've never lived in

Great thread!!!

When choosing between those two pieces of chicken on the buffet; knowing it really doesn't matter which one you choose.......you'll have another shot at the other one tomorrow.

Not really expedite, but a sign you have been out to long. Call the ft desk for a wake up call and the night clerk says they don't have that room number. then you realize that you gave the room number from the night before. Jerry Lee

Can parallel park a straight truck, but can't park a compact car in the middle of a diagonal parking spot.

gospelriders · May 28, 2012

when you have to make a u turn on a very busy street in a straight truck (which turns into a 3-4 point turn) and your wife is hiding in the sleeper because she is not convinced having the flashers on makes us an emergency vehicle.
