How would you feel about being a truck driver? There's lots of openings for truck drivers nowadays. They make decent money.

I've considered that. The only reason I never looked into it much is because I'm not 21 (my age comes up wrong on here), and a lot of places require that. However, I've only got a few more months to go, so maybe that's what I'll do.

Just go through the CDL training. Some big trucking companies have training programs. Some are even advertising on the radio looking for employees,

Well, I could do that, or I could go to a CDL school and be free to apply anywhere, rather than being stuck in a contract with one trucking company. It might be worth the cost if I can find a high-paying truck driving job locally. I'll just have to do some research.

I know the user named "886" is a trucker.

There was another guy here whose name I forgot who is also a trucker.
