Profile For Curt M. Pistol Pete

Ive actually been off the road for a few years, but thanks to DEMOCRATS and our fearless leader, my $75K a year job is going away. So, being a former owner/operator, I decided to take the plunge. I did quite well as an Owner/operator, because I treated it like a business not a field trip. NOTHING in life that is worthwhile comes easy, you have to work for it.

I used to laugh and shake my head back in the 80's when I was running big time, all the time, because Id be eating dinner, breakfast, lunch, snack or whatever in some truckstop and there would always be some guy complaining about not making any money. And sure enough, Id see him down the road somewhere, doing the same thing. My thoughts were, if he spent as much time behind the wheel as he did shooting pinball, he might be making some money!!!

NO TRUCKING JOB IS EASY!!!!! Thats why real truckers are some of the best folks around and some of the toughest. Its because they have a spirit and a need to succeed. A guy once told me, when I asked him if he was doing ok trucking," No, I do this just for the hell of it. Of course I am doing well, do you think I would do this kind of work and be away from home if i was starving to death?"

Form a plan, stick to your plan, prepare for what you can prepare for, dont PANIC!
