My stepdad is a truck driver, has been for probably the last 14 years. He's always saying how much he hates it and wants to come off the road so he can be at home more. Mind you I am the oldest of four, so I can see where he is coming from, but I was wondering if you really think it's that bad? Do you enjoy it? Do you keep in touch with family pretty well?

So I am a pretty friendly person. I love talking to everyone and I smile and nod at most people I see walking by. However, when it comes to people with any sort of physical disabilities I get awkward, because I still want to be friendly, but I don't want you to think I am being friendly because I pity you or anything like that. Any suggestions on how to act? I've gotten some nasty looks before if you were wondering where this question was coming from. Also is it awful of me for looking at the disability?
