Maybe there is an opportunity there. I featured some ideas that were inspired by this article on my #trucking blog

It was clear that he knew how to drive then. No surprise that he can handle a tractor trailer now. Great article. Be careful out there, Lee.

When he was about three, he would watch the garbage truck drive by in front of the house and say, “That’s what I’m going to do when I grow up.” I encouraged him to shoot higher by telling him that although garbage truck drives were doing honest work, they didn’t get paid much. His reply was always, “Yeah, Dad, but they get to drive that truck!”
