Hi guys. I`m a 24 year old guy from the eastern outskirts of the EU. I`ve been in the passenger transport business since I graduated high school. While i dreamed of being a driver since I was 15, in the summer of 2021. i got my first "F*ck this" moment. It was a hot summer day and after lunch, I was driving down the motorway.

The radio wasn`t working and I was for once left alone with my thoughts. The thoughts of "what am I doing with my youth" overwhelmed me into something akin to a panic attack. You see, I am a calm person and this is not something that ever happened to me before. An hour away I arrived to my destination, drank some water to calm down, and started rethinking my life and everything I`ve done/haven`t done to get where I was at the moment. The job, which I once loved, simply exhausted me. Long, exhausting work days stripped me of any willpower to care about myself and spend time on hobbies (I had none ATM).

A month later i gave notice that I would be qutting work mid october due to the tourist season still going on. After all, my boss was fair to me and I decided not to burn bridges and return the favor. In the next few months I discovered self-improvement, started taking better care of myself, and did some travelling. The next summer came soon enough, and just to get some money, I worked at a local hotel. The job was tedious and 90 % of it was acting busy without being able to do anything useful. After getting a job offer from several transport companies (including my old boss), i quit after a few weeks. My parents were not happy with this as "all of this was for nothing". But for me, quitting the summer before was the most difficult but also the best decision I had made so far.

While a lot of people hate their 9-5, I can`t say the same. But I know I can be better. Since I was a child I felt my purpose was around driving and travelling, so who knows, maybe my fastlane has been in plain sight this entire time.
