College Student thinking of quitting to become a trucker
by: Hervy

A Doctor are you kidding? :-)

Hey Paul, I agree with Mandy, Jimmy and Anonymous 1, trucking will always be here.

Especially since your are going to school there is no way I would stop to drive.

In fact, take advantage of school while your there. Take some business classes or even classes in the transportation or logistics field of study to get insight on the trucking industry.

You will have your degree and extra knowledge should you still want to become a trucker when you finish school.

School or trucking?
by: Jimmy

I don't know the lifestyle in Romania, but stay in school and get the best education, then try trucking if you want. And if it doesn't work out, you will have a good education to fall back on. Jimmy

Stay in School, The trucks will be there when you graduate. If you still want to drive then, well it's all a matter of how bad do you want it, and are you willing to do what it takes to get it.

Remember; Trucking is no cake walk, but it is the best life that I have ever known.
