I'm persueing a new career as otr driver. when you say "18 days banked" , I know that's time off, but, it's w/o any kind of pay right? how is it good to have that many days of w/o pay?
thanks, bloozy -
If you're poor at managing your personal finances. It ain't worth a ####.
In my case, I can take off 6 months without pay. And not be affected. Other than watching my bank/savings account get smaller.
I'm not in this business to see if I can die behind the wheel of a truck. I doing my level best to die in a tree stand, being a family kind of guy, or out ho'n around. -
Let me tell you, after being out there for weeks/months without any break you are ready to get off the truck and when you get back home you value the time you have and the more days banked the better. Its a time to regain your sanity ~lol~, rest and relax and enjoy life. We used to stay out for 6 - 8 weeks at a time and then come home for 7 -8 days - we loved it - and really when it is time to go back out one feels refreshed and ready to roll again.
If you decide to become a driver, you will realize why banking days is a great thing.
Good luck . -

Well, just to let ya'll know, I have gotten a prehire and a scheduled orientation for Feb 9th from Christine, however I still have to do my telephone interview with her. She told me last week tat she was buried in paperwork, but she would try to get back with me (I am expecting TODAY).
Anyway, just though I would pop my head in here and let you know how it is going. I am now halfway through school and things are coming together nicely. Already passed all my yardwork, classroom, and CDL tests. I have gotten just a little time behind the wheel, but I am told that I should get ready to do a lot of driving next week. "I'll take PSYCHED for a thousand please, Alex"
SO there ya are..... any recent info from current Conway drivers or their spouses (hey there Bobby!) would be appreciated!
Thanks!
