Not all like you, we cannot think of ourselves as compare to
others, you might have your strength in whatever you are doing, but
many others have their weakness that call for respect.
TD is a honest job, but definitely a tough one, newbies that
came in can be from all kind of life, from ex banker to casket
driver like me, there is alway a story behind every TDs on the
road.
For most, once stepped in, they want to show success, so drive
here and there, day and night, they want to show to their family
that it can be much more better than their old CPF jobs, and with
ego and pride mixed, they strive on, at least give it a try for 1
to 2 years, after that, some get stuck in it, some decided that TD
is not their trade, so they move out and move on.
And to many who get stuck in it, it could be getting use to it,
on the other hand, also people like me, casket to delivery drivers,
TD income is much better in a sense and the most important is there
is no asshole sitting on top of you commanding you by giving you
stupid order and making you like a fool, controlling you with
string like you are just a puppet.
Therefore, it depend on which background or how conditioned are
you, peoples will weight the balance to decide, I got friend who
give up TD, go shipyard works 2 month, fell down, and now
paralysed, so if he had keep driving, it might be better.
So, perhap, you are like me, but I still do relief for others,
as helping them in a way. We do not need to depend on TD, still can
go JB, you go shopping, I go spa, its is this flexibility that
makes our life better. But we then need to know where we come from,
as a former or current TD, we need to be more encouraging for
those who are still OTR earning a decent living.
