My current biz/career as a PC software consultant has me totally burnt out. Been doing it since "87 and have really wanted out since "01. The one thing I really enjoy is driving. And I mean long distance driving. When we relocated from NY to SC after 9/11 I used to drive back and forth every week to work. Trip was 757 miles from my house to my mother"s on Long Island. I used to do it straight with only one stop for gas and restroom, 10-11 hrs. Record was 10:15. Sometimes longer due to weather or traffic. Now that I live in ME I regularly drive 235 miles to Stamford CT, or 275 to NYC to work a couple of days.
Thing is you hear so many stories about how bad it is to be a trucker these days. How btw fuel, insurance, taxes you can not make a decent $.
So do I go and get my CDL thru a school or do I go reply to one of these large national trucking firms ads to train and drive for them?
Any input/feedback will be greatly appreciated. Tks Pete

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
