HSF, when you wrote that back in the day when you were traveling alone you encountered a lot of broken souls I saw a bond that only those of us that have lived it can understand.
I have been a technical sales/application specialist for industrial electric motors for four decades. I spent almost three of those decades on the road and at least twelve of those as a road warrior.
You have all probably heard the term ‘road warrior’, but likely do not realize that there is actually a definition of the term.
Merriam-Webster’s dictionary merely says, “… Road warrior – a person who travels frequently especially on business…”, but that is not how those of us that have lived it define it. To us a road warrior was a person that logged a minimum of 250 overnights on business in a twelve-month period. It could be in sales, service, as with HSF – performing comedy, or anything, but it had to be business only. No working vacations – business. We called ourselves coyotes.
