I stopped get a coffee coming out New England. Slang in trucking culture lot lizard whore this woman approached me. Years ago it was common but today truck stops have really been driving them out. Thirty two years of union freight I’ve never slept in a sleeper berth we run terminal to terminal and stay in hotels when we sleep. I’ve laid my head over steering wheel over years get a nap when I needed one. Make union cash get home to wife and kids , but this young woman approached me and I declined. I am not interested I have wife ,in my mind I felt sorry for her.
I told her I am not interested and joking I said I have day cab that is no sleeping berth. She said I can do you your skinny enough I’m like wow. I asked her how old are you 26 she said I thought our daughters 32 28 24 And our sons 13. Looking at her she had those blisters around her lips I think from smoking crack. I just felt bad for her I just gave her 20$ I said you know go get something to eat. I told my wife I said that bothered me that young lady. I gamble she is our daughters age and I wonder where her parents family is it just bothered me. We need a program to treat addiction in this country I’m thinking I’m taking naltrexone for not drinking. And this kid is stuck in this cycle I just felt bad for her.
