i may very well have to go back over-the-road.
i can't afford this shit any more... the gas, the beating my brand new car is taking. i already have over 11,000 miles on it! i bought the damn thing in december! what the fuck.
the trip to and from work is 52 miles. the trip from home to school and back is an additional 20 miles. that's over 300 miles a week on shit that must be done... that doesn't include errands and entertainment and other miscellaneous shit.
the pay cut that i took to come back home/go to school just isn't hacking it. i finally figured it out...
i'm losing a total of $14,000 a year being here. the last year over-the-road, despite massive mechanical problems/being fucking shut down all of the time due to lack of freight i still made 14 grand more last year than what is projected for this year.
i've applied to a shit-ton of other logistics related jobs with my former employer Schneider National, so hopefully one of those can work out... but if not, then over the road i shall go.
life is really lame some times. but i suppose some times you just have to do shit you don't like to get by.
fuck.
