At those rates I could just serve tables at AppleBees
I've worked in a restaurant and worked in construction, (didn't drive a truck, but I rode along with the truckers to haul equipment).
If I had to choose between working at Applebees or driving a truck, I'd definitely pick the truck.
- altcognito 5y agoWhy? Trapped sitting in a truck, anxious about traffic? Restaurant work isn’t isn’t or fun, but at least you get to go home to your own bed.
- mjevans 5y agoThe 1-5% (I hope it's this low) of customers that are the only ones you can't forget because they make life hell.
- erdos4d 5y agoThis is literally why I quit teaching university and never went back to academia. Every class has one student who is a complete shit and 95% of your stress revolves around this one person. Work that doesn't require much human contact is so much better.

- Johnny555 5y agoTraffic doesn't make me anxious, even when I'm driving a large vehicle, and not every truck driver is a long haul trucker.
- UncleEntity 5y agoTomorrow I have to sleep until noon, drive over to Yuma, AZ and take a nap while I get loaded, bomb into LA before the morning traffic starts up, drop the loaded trailer then go back to sleep until I get a reload probably at the same place I’m dropping the loaded trailer. Zero stress, zero hassle (well, I hope…) and I’ll get paid a ‘measly’ $200 to listen to the radio all night.
