Family Supper Was Interesting About Trucking... Not

Well, at least he remembers to take his keys with him before locking his truck door.

SHHHHH!!! I learned that lesson the hard, expensive way. Twice in 1 week.

And she can also nag on you to put those cookies down while you're driving!

Errol knows all about eating cookies while driving. He got caught on the Drivecam eating OREOS!

Yes, I was written up for distracted driving!

And Tractor Man will always remind me (and you all).

Dang, I'd hate to see what would happen if you would've had a cup of milk with those cookies

Don't spend your hard earned money to get in. Just call Paul, he will teach you how to break into your own Truck. He has broken into his own DOZENS of times!

To be honest just a little while longer then she and i will be free as the wind

I have one comment to make: I think you should consider the possibility that your fiancee's father is thinking that he's helping his daughter by telling you things that she doesn't want to tell you.

Probably this. I told my nephews no one should get married before the age of 30. Your 20s are the age of exploring who you are and what you want. For doing the things you want without people holding you back. Trucking case in point. If not for this family you'd be out on the road already. I felt the same.about having kids. Some I know had kids right out of high school and had to scrape by and sacrifice. I didn't. I traveled the world, bought sports cars, got massages and facials while other envied me. I could get on the road with no issues cause I'm responsible to and for no one.

Another thing is that he probably feels you can't provide for her. You are living in his house, regardless of what you contribute you have not proven you can do it on your own. Things are different today than twenty years ago. When I was 21, I got married bought a house, furnished it with new stuff and bought a "new" car (it was two years old) all within six months. Today those in their twenties live with their parents much longer, have kids and it seems to older people they are playing house but not understanding true responsibility.

If I was him, I'd encourage you to go and hope the separation of training divides you. Even if she goes on the road with you. Is she going FOR you? Or to get away from him? Cause honestly I moved in with my soon to be hubby to get away from my mother. Was married at 21 and after seven years together we divorced.

You are young. Do what you want with your life. Those who are in it now probably won't be in five more years. Don't let unimportant people dictate the direction your life goes.

Weve actually been proving we can live on our own since we moved up here the past 3 years. As my fiance has been taking care of our new born i was working full time to pay our full rent in their house (900 a month) after our son passed away, she picked up a full time job as well and we both still pay the 900 a month for rent. i had bought a new car so we had a back seat for the car seat. We have proven we can be more than self sufficent on our own.

On the point of her leaving and the reason why, she is leaving for ourselves. Us together will be better off on our own exloting tbe country. She and i both have been wanting the nomad lifestyle (constantly traveling not settled in one place)

Tractor Man, just don't park near me or I might accidentally break into the wrong truck!!

Just out of curiosity, how many "Keys" does a piano have? You appear to know where each of those are, even without looking!

Hey your not too heavy!

Your just too short for your weight.

I hope you get it all figured out. My in laws weren't very supportive either.

You can work as a carpenter or cement mason. And when it's raining or work is super slow you can borrow money from the dictator in law. Or you can always work a stable job with steady income.

It's interesting that he's not for it. They say the mellinials (spell check) are horrible for wanting 6 figure incomes.

All the saying about I'd rather my sister be a ... than a truck driver yada yada is no different than calling a carpenter a glorified laborer or a steamfitter a pipefitter with a cert...

Will you be leaving your fiancé in the uncomfortable environment? I don't know your situation... pops probably feels like your gonna leave her for a month at a time and no support.

You know Reaper, it sounds to me like your future father in law has a very poor opinion of you and what you've chosen as your profession. Let me give you a little piece of advice. There was a time in my life when I used to really care more about someone's opinion of me than anything, until a day came that I tried to pay my bills with those same opinions and it didn't work out very well. The point is, do whatever you have to do to care of the one's who love and support you and the negative opinions you can take out with the rest of the garbage.
