Don’t be nonshalant in what you do

So I heard about the ups plane crash and that sickens me to my stomach. There have been way too many plane crages lately. Anyways I was sitting back listening to a few different pilots share about what they think and what they do as pilots.

I was a bit put off cause of the way they explained things so casually and had the we just do it this way and it is what it is attitude…. You can’t be like that and fly a missle through the air …. Me being a a professional driver for over 16 years and understand a lot of what they do as well with weights, securement, pre trip, post trip, maintenance, weather conditions, etc. but I don’t have the it is what it is attitude . They I’m guessing are at home or at a hotel and wearing regular r shirts and relaxing In a chair with nothing that says or shows that they are a pilot.

Let’s say for instance I decide to make a video on something in the trucking industry cause of my background and want to give others good information. Im going to dress in my best suit or my best professional work gear and have all the information in front of me that I want to talk about and explain said points and situation in the most professional way possible and with the best attitude forward.

So gentlemen please by all that is holy and right , Do your best , look at yourself in the mirror and give yourself a hard internal and external briefing before you decide to take something on.

Everyday I have to make the decision to drive an 30,000 to 80,000lb rolling missle down the road, I have to know that I am in the right mind set, that im healthy enough and fully aware to keep myself and the thousands of other drivers and pedestrians around me safe. I take this so serious and so much more than probably other truck drivers as well.

If I had to double guess myself in the morning id just call in and take a or a couple sick days till im right to do the job to the best of my abilities.

This is why we have to be and dress as gentleman so we can be better than those whom only go 1/2 drive everyday and don’t try to their best of abilities!

Please do it better than the next guy
