It’s a difficult thing when there isn’t enough work for every trucker in a company. You may end up parked and sitting along the road, at home, or at your company waiting for word that a load is ready. One driver I know was asked to help the mechanics and cleaning crew during those slow times. At first this wasn’t easy to accept as he wanted to be behind the wheel doing what he was trained to do. He soon realized that if he continued to grumble and complain about this new development, it wasn’t going to help him or those around him. He began to appreciate the mechanical work because it helped him to stay up to date in that area. You may have valid things going on to gripe about. However, maintaining that kind of attitude will not help your overall outlook. Look for some positive things instead. Let us know how we can help you in this area. Comment here.
