Summary
In this week's lively and entertaining episode, we sit down with Donna Lynn, the dynamic and multifaceted wife of Hector, a previous guest and truck driver. Donna Lynn shares her unique perspective on the trucking industry, not from behind the wheel, but from her critical role in claims and customer service. With a blend of humor and insight, she discusses the challenges and nuances of dealing with everything from damaged goods to managing a hectic household. Alongside anecdotes about her work and life, including her history with Hector from high school sweethearts to their family life now, Donna Lynn's story offers a refreshing look at the trucking world from a seldom-heard viewpoint. This episode peels back the curtain on the industry's office side, highlighting the essential contributions of those who keep the wheels turning from behind the scenes.
