Very good information, Nobert. Before I retired I was a cab driver spending 17 years behind the wheel was very stressful even though I loved my job. I had to retire at my doctor’s request due to a stress related illness. There were many nights when I wouldn’t eat the whole 16 hours but I always had a coffee in my hand. I sure could have used your advice then.
