TheTrucker.com ran an article in their July edition that interviews a lease operator who was formerly an attorney. That’s right from attorney to truck driving job.
Richard Voss was an attorney who gave up the stress of his day to day life for the open road. Voss practiced law for 12 years before throwing in the towel. According to Voss, “There comes a point where you don’t sleep well, you get too stressed to do the job, and its time to stop.”
In the article Voss described what keeps him interested. Voss said “a factory may not be interesting; but inside it is.” He also appreciates all the different things people do to make a living and is fascinated by their jobs.
In the article Voss gives a great message for other truck drivers to follow. He believes following his rule will make each day a good one. According to Voss “there is no stress in trucking unless you make it yourself!” Voss’s rule is when you go in to a location, go in with a smile and a good attitude. He says following this will prevent your day from going down hill.
This article goes to show that the business of trucking can be a good one to be in. Not all attorneys are looking to get behind the wheel, but this one choose cdl driving jobs and made an enjoyable career out of it.
