I've drove truck for 22 years. 10 of that over the road. I found out real early that trucking is the last bastion of the social misfit. You go in sit down and then get to listen to some dumbass lie through his teeth or give you life advice when he's clearly a screw up. I ate 95% of the time in my truck so i didn't have to deal with morons in truck stop restaurants. I learned to get very creative cooking out of a coleman 12v cooler and a microwave. I spent 1/2 as much money than eating in the restaurants also. My Uncle drove for over 40 years and couldn't believe i could go out on the road for 6-10 days and never spend $20 when he was laying down $1-200+ a week in truck stops between meals, coffee's and tips.
