Some have bulled their way through it and have managed to do good but most came to the realization that they were better off driving and just having to worry about themselves.
When they managed or ran a agency they were now responsible for everybody and everything.
The reputation of their business always came back to them, no matter who did what.
When they were a driver they had to manage their crews while packing, loading and delivering but after they closed their trailer doors they could roll down the road being responsible for just them and the customers in their trailer.
I cannot over emphasize the importance of that exhale.
Enjoy what you have built and the independence that you have earned.
Being your own business man is a privilege and in today's business world it is truly priceless.
You are THE man, your are your own boss.
How successful you are is totally up to you.
Yes, you will have days that you are totally frustrated and things will not go go your way.
Yes, you will have trips that are profitable and those that are not so much.
That is free enterprise and every business owner goes through it in every market.
Just try to always remind yourself just why you do what you do and how you got there.
Most drivers worked their way up from being a helper to obtaining a class A and learning from the ground up.
You are always learning how to improve and how to do things better and how to profit but remember what you have.
Having the opportunity to be your own boss is truly a gift and a opportunity that millions of people would love to have.
Embrace the day, be thankful for the opportunity and continue to work your craft and your profession .
Packing and loading a trailer properly is a art. And I marvel at what a elite household goods driver does every day.
I salute you and you should take a moment to enjoy what you have worked so hard to learn and obtain.
Being your own boss is pretty cool.
