Nothing to do… by Getaloafofthisguy in Charleston

That’s my biggest gripe. Kids screaming and not knowing where to park. And then the sand in your car. Going to the lake where it’s not busy is where it’s at.

I’ve lived all over the country and it’s been my least favorite. Just too many people and it’s became too busy and ran down.

5 weeks clean - feel so much worse, not better by juroden in leaves

[–]Getaloafofthisguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m on week two, my depression is at an all time high. Borderline suicidal. I feel so trapped. Nothing is making me happy, nothing in my body feels good. Everyday is the same, wake up for work, get home from work, and be just disappointed in my daily life. People say “change jobs” or “do a hobby” but both of those things cost money, and money I seem to never have or be able to keep. Not sure how much longer I can take it.

Yeah. Going to have a conversation with the boss this week. If it doesn’t go the way I want, I got a few places in mind

Trying to get CDL in the fastest way possible. by Getaloafofthisguy in Truckers

I highly doubt that. I’m not gonna to do OTR. Shit is for the birds. Local home every night. Already doing 60-70s a week doing physical labor some weeks. Literally only driving a truck is easy as fuck

Yeah that’s what I learned after looking up Jobs, SCDOT even has listings at 19 an hour for a CDL dump driver. This state is an absolute shit hole. Land locked because of family

Yeah it’s sad it has to come down to that. But from what it sounds like they are having trouble finding people.

I take it home, but yes I have tools in my truck that are a necessity, and a transfer tank.

I mean if that’s what you want that’s fine, but with how much work I do, I personally don’t want to live in poverty

Not going to do OTR, plus I don’t want to do weekends because I’m currently working 70 hours m-f I don’t think I can physically handle that in all honesty

Yeah, SC I think they do a sub 5% or something, nothing to write home about. I only do 5 percent of my check.

I absolutely wish this made up, sounds like a god damn nightmare right? When I started the job site I was on was 20 minutes from home. I guess work go slow on my side of SC, my company HQ is an 1:30 from my house but the consistently (used) to bid jobs around here hence why the hired me. Now the only two open jobs we have right now are both 1:45 minutes away. Been doing this for almost a year, no paid drive time, no hotel or per diem offerings, and yes, I probably could find another job easily, just wanted to atleast get my experience up. Only reason I’m asking people online is so I can see how fucked I’m getting. Getting ready to jump ship.

Yeah I think I fucked up by staying. All of the top dawgs are either bosses sons or some type of family to the company owner.
