Authority Pros & Cons

[pearce trucking]

I've driven since 1998, owned my truck and leased to carrier since 2002, and had my authority since 2012. I guess all I can say is that I'm glad that Mayan calendar thing didn't pan out because I definitely will never go back. It's good to pull for a carrier for a while to get used to operating your own truck, and some people prefer not to deal with the headaches, but it's nice to be the one calling the shots, and not depending on a dispatcher or dealing with company politics.
And the money's a lot better.
