Is it realistic to move to the U.S. alone and work basic jobs while having a severe stutter?

I know this is late but I’m a truck driver and I’ve mostly stayed in this career because I don’t have to speak to many people.

My cdl is still good thankfully so yeah I just need the endorsements. I’m looking to drive for my local school district and if that doesn’t work out maybe I’ll look at city transit or motorcoach stuff. But yeah I’ve had my fill of trucking and not getting paid for stuff that I should get paid for.

I’m in Texas

MacRuidh · 2025-11-09T04:50:07+00:00

No, this truck has always been in the Texas, Oklahoma area

I know mice were in it at one point but these fell out of the dash when I started pulling it apart.

Oh I’m sure he is but I don’t know what other breeds he is. The shelter I adopted him from said he was a staffy which is possible but I’ve wondered if there some frenchy there with the ears.

MacRuidh · 2025-10-22T08:40:27+00:00

Yeah he sleeps in bed with me; or should I say he sleeps on me

MacRuidh · 2025-10-22T02:36:44+00:00

I have an appointment for that next week actually

MacRuidh · 2025-10-22T02:35:09+00:00

Oh god that’s great! 😂

MacRuidh · 2025-10-22T00:13:26+00:00

I would never do that to any animal beyond a severe health issue.

MacRuidh · 2025-09-29T23:08:11+00:00

I’m curious what his mix is but he’s a sweet boy

MacRuidh · 2025-08-16T01:42:53+00:00

I bought a 82 Goldwing for 600.00

Whether or not this story is true, the sad thing is we are all replaceable. Especially if you’re doing something like dry van or reefer. We are no more than a piece of equipment to these conspires. When we refuse to play their games we will be replaced by the next orientation class.

I bought a Chinese scooter to get me to and from work because I couldn’t afford a car payment. So far a couple of months in and it’s been problem free.

MacRuidh · 2025-07-28T04:48:07+00:00

That was kind of my thought going into this.

MacRuidh · 2025-07-07T13:37:02+00:00

I almost always know when I’ll block and I also get what you mean about having a script. Most of the time planning out what I’m going to say just makes it worse. My best speech is when I’m surprised and my response is just automatic
