A Truckers Story

Meet Jack Campbell. He’s a recent law school graduate. His entire life has been dedicated to this one goal. After all, it was the family business. His father and grandfather were lawyers. Everything was going along as planned. That is until his drive home from school. He casually stopped for lunch at a truck stop, as was his custom when driving home. There he started up a conversation with a man named Homer White. Homer was a truck driver. Homer told Jack about the amazing things he had seen and done while driving a truck. To a young man fresh out of college, this was awe inspiring. While mesmerized by Homer’s stories, Homer asked Jack, "How would you like to take the summer off and drive a truck and see this country?" That one question and Jack’s acceptance changed his life forever. Don’t get to thinking that you know the story already. What happens is not what you might think. It’s much stranger.
