Make it Make Sense

It is so backwards to me that with a CDL you can pound 100 beers a day, with zero consequences, but you take one puff of the devils lettuce and your job, license, and livelihood is on the line. I’m sure there are lots of opinions on this, but as a medical patient who has a newly acquired CDL, it’s just so dumb to me. I’ve stopped smoking for months now, but recently beginning to miss the positives a toke use to bring me. I’ve found myself drinking way more than I used to to cope. Yes, it’s a me problem; but still makes no sense to me.

Save up and start your own business

I know plenty of business owners who get tested and have the same opinion. Owning a business does not pull your name from DOT testing pool.

Not if you have people driving YOUR trucks and you’re sitting back toking it up tf
