I remember watching the film “It’s a Wonderful Life,” where George, the lead character is told that he was worth more dead than alive. After contemplating the insult through a depression haze, fogged over by a couple drinks, George attempts suicide. Enter Clarence, an Angel sent to show George he is valued and loved. In the end, George realizes his life has value that is richer than all the money in the world. Driver, do you ever feel worthless like George did? The dispatcher expects you to fly low, the shipper expects you to be there when he is ready to ship, the receiver wanted it yesterday, DOT wants to inspect your log book and DOT the truck. On top of all that, you have a family back home that needs you to be there. Sometimes, the demands and expectations of others can make you feel worthless. Don’t forget that you are valuable and loved, whether you know it or not. We can help. Comment here.
