I drove OTR.
When you add up ALL the hours including the
ENDLESS hours you sit in LOADING DOCKS on
your ass, waiting to get loaded and unloaded
by non-English speaking lumpers who take
siestas just to piss you off,
and trying to dodge scales with overloaded
trailers that you don't DARE take back or they'll
make you wait ANOTHER couple hours in their
loading docks, and then you have the econutsy
maniacs who don't want you on THEIR INTERSTATE
and try to drive you off the road, and you have
to almost kill YOURSELF trying to keep from
killing them in their little sub-compact cars,
and the towns that forbid you to use your noisy
engine brake, because it annoys them
(but they want your stuff)
and ticket you if you idle in sub-freezing temps,
because they don't want you polluting THEIR AIR
with you stinky diesel exhaust, etc, etc, etc...

if you add up all the hours you're making less
than minumum wage doing a shitty thankless job.

I bought a farm, we grow our own food,
are as self-sufficient as you can possibly
get and screw the rest of you.

Also have an arsenal to kill you when you
come looking for OUR FOOD.
