life on the truck

so for a living i am in the food industry, and one of my jobs is to drive a food truck. now i know what you're thinking and no i dont drive the traditional "roach coach", i drive the ones that are wrapped and go to the food truckfests etc. this is a business that everyone thinks they can do and from experience they are wrong this is a business that you need to have another steady source of income as with the good days there are alot of slow days as well as unforeseen expenses like a broken generator, or your fridge stops working or just paying for basics like gas and propane.
and driving the truck takes some getting used to. my 1st driving lesson was at 1 a.m. after we catered a party. but after a few more times i learned the trick was to get out before you even drive and survey your surroundings and plan how you are going to get out or park your truck. now since i do that i am always amazing people with my driving skills i can parallel park her like nobodys business.
another tip is to staff your truck with thin people and preferably females. now dont get me wrong there are alot of men who work on trucks but from experience females not only communicate better, we are cleaner, faster, more logical and we can figure out how to solve problems real fast.
so if you are thinking of going into this field i would say talk to different people who own trucka and even work on one for awhile to even see if you want to do it.
