Trucking changes your life — in the best and toughest ways. If I could go back, I’d tell my rookie self a few things: it’s not just a job, it’s a lifestyle. Sleep schedules, patience, and self-discipline matter more than horsepower.
You’ll learn to handle stress, distance, and time management. But you’ll also gain freedom, pride, and friendships that last for years.
This blog — and Jakes & Brakes on YouTube — are here to share lessons like these so new drivers can start smarter, safer, and stronger.
