    I’m about to drive for Schneider; I’m a retired Army Veteran amongst other veterans of all kinds. Thank you to all truckers that hail long and local. I know how important it is to keep the wheels rolling but also family to stay connected to in addition to support groups.

    I admit trucking can be stressful. It's a dangerous job. It's just very important to put safety first always. And yes, to relieve stress, I would exercise, keep in touch with family and friends, writing letters. That is how I relive stress on my off duty time.

      @@truthseeker1833 In my last trucking experience, I didn't have a tv in my sleeper, So that's what I did on my off duty time by writing letters to friends and family back home. And I played video games at the arcades of some truck stops. Hey, I had to have some fun to relive stress while in the road. Lol

    It sucks. Do something that gives you a more normal life. These companies don't pay what the job is worth.

    I have more respect for truck drivers than any other profession. The anxiety I would feel I couldn't handle it way too many morons on the roads.
