“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Truck Driving as a Career

- Start date
What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

No kids or tie downs, go for it. Work hard, save your money. Just remember you will probably only have 15-20 years before the trucks are automated.
It's not a bad job, If you have to do long haul, you have to sleep in the truck. With a criminal record you have other options like construction, tile, pool cleaning, cooking at a nice non chain restaurant and installing blinds. I have two friends with felonies, and that's what they have done.

My dad is an OTR driver.
In 10-15 years, big rigs are going to drive themselves. The days of human drivers are numbered.
If you are disciplined enough to save your money and invest in something, you might do ok. But most truck drivers are fat, smelly, lonely social outcasts. It's not a happy life.

Dear ProDJ26,
Your investment would not be entirely wasted,No knowledge is a burden to carry,but consider that you own a big rig worth say !-2 Million dollars,you have queue of applicants for a job with you...You are just starting out with a course that probably has no real recognition,no experience,and you have the record...Sorry but Truckers have insurances,they carry valuable cargoes and whatever the justice of this,they are just not allowed to employ you...Unless you have money to buy a rig yourself,your options are very limited...Buses are also out because of your record,However the course would help you get a job delivering groceries or Internet Parcels...If you are a sturdy Lad,I think your time would be better spent getting into construction....Wall and floor tiling is a relatively light and reasonable job,opportunities to start with maintenance jobs and work up,try and avoid roofing,too dangerous...Avoid anything to do with Concrete,just grinds your body to bits...Carpentry needs a lot of training..Plastering and Bricklaying take a long time to build up speed and are heavy,dusty work best avoided...But if you can find an experienced Guy in any trade and work cheaply for him,you will have a toe in the door...What about doing a course in plant operation,with a little capital you can easily get a truck and Bobcat!

as much demand as there is for drivers right now, you shouldn't have trouble finding a driving job. Over the road drivers are needed as bad as nurses right now, is what I'm told.

Dear Prod,
Oh dear in this Country we call the ability to operate,tractors,back hoes and other heavy earth moving equipment...Plant operation...Tech Colleges give a ticket(Licence) enabling holder to operate such equipment...I am sure something analogous is offered in the States?

Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.

I say go for it. But be careful not to let them pressure you to become a owner/operator right off the bat.... doing so will mean you incur all maintenace costs. Be an employee for a few years then try to get on a dedicatef account with a major client.
Also look into getting certified for liquid transpotlrtation or hazardous material transport since that will earn you more.

Go with Schneiders, they are an awesome company with amazing trucks. They'll even pay for your schooling if you sign up for 3 years.
I would love a bobcat, or a moffat, those things are wicked cool.
Its not a bad job, its not easy though. You will see all of America and its a really nice way to see it actually. I love the flying J, it has private showers and bathrooms, decent laundry facilities and its just friggin cool to see all the different places in America and talk to other drivers. I would say do it for a couple years, you can make some decent money and have a bit of an adventure at the same time.

Probably less than 10 years. What there will be are truck convoys in which the front truck will have a human overseer (not rally a driver anymore), with about 50 or so trucks driving themselves. Of course, this will all long haul, and regular truck drivers will still be needed to make local deliveries. But there will be vastly fewer drivers.Bible_Belt said:

than the driver sindicate will complain, says it not safe for a non human truck, goverment will say its ilegal to be without a driver and in the end driver will still be needed even if just to watch the truck driving himself.
you guys are only thinking on the technology not the whole system, plus in 10 years they can produce something like that, but it will not be cheap, and drivers will complain and raise hell over it. so it will take a lot longer then 10 years to start the replace of drivers

my take...little different
Control . Self control. Most all your problems, the felony, lifestyle, daughter out of your custody and choosing an incompatible woman to have here with indicate a lack of self control and an impulse driven personality.
Truck driving for a few years could be good for you IF you use the time and solitude to learn patience and self control, anger managment, planning and organizing, and working towards goals.
Lot of time alone to self analyze, save some money, or lot of time to blow money on drugs, prostitution, food, and anger at the world. What will you do?
