Lost my trucking job the other day, due to leaving work early because I was tired. The fuckers fired me and said I was a liability to company. I've been in this field for 7 years and feel like I have no other skills. Was thinking about taking some IT classes online and getting into the tech field. I gotta get out of trucking before it kills me. I'm 34, overweight, and get chest pains a lot. There's plenty of factory jobs around me, but they all pay like shit. Is going into IT a good idea for an autistic retard like me? Is AI gonna replace IT jobs? I literally have no idea what to do with my life right now, besides invest in dog coins. kek

All I know is I don't wanna be a truck driver anymore. If I go back on the road, I'm literally gonna have a heart attack or stroke and die.

Why didn't you take meth if you were tired? That's what your colleagues do and they don't get fired.

kek. Most company drivers are held to a higher standard now a days. We have to take hair follicle tests and shit.

What's more fucked up is that I had a doctors appointment scheduled to get check out. Just to see if I have any underlying conditions. They fired me before I could even go to the doc, therefore lost my insurance as well.

Can't you just buy your own truck and subcontract / get your own clients? then you could earn more / work less and spend more time taking care of yourself.

There's a lot of variables that go into that. Freight rates, economy, and fuel prices. A lot of owner ops are suffering right now. Plus that's a lot of stress I don't wanna deal with. Especially when I'm trying to reduce stress. Rather just change careers.

Good luck op, shit's tough.
Look at cybersecurity courses.

Avoid coding jobs. You'll always hear spiritual niggers clucking that they make 7 digits while working from home when, even if that were ever possible, those individuals and the opportunities they were provided by a hyper-elite background are not available to you (yet).
