I really can not understand how you are not makeing money teaming. I recently drove team guaranteed pay 1000 a week and generally made a lot more than that. Granted we never stopped except to fuel and restroom. Generally showered when running early and grabbed a bite to eat when we fueled or restroom breaks. Home every weekend. For me it was a decent gig. Now I run solo on a dedicated run make the same money and I'm home every night and weekends. In my younger days I was hungry and out 3 to 4 months at a time and able to buy all the stuff to make my life comfortable. Now as I get older my home time becomes more important to be able to enjoy the things I put my time in for when I was younger. Every ones situation is different but I feel starting out when you have a family is very hard as you are not going to make the money an experianced driver makes and it is harder to find jobs.

Guys,
I will probably get laughed at for what I am about to say. I work in pizza delivery and make an average of $11 an hour. I only work 16 hours cause thats all I need. I once made $100 in a night because I worked seven hours. I made $170+ in one busy night. As a result, I had the next four days off. If you can either wait tables or deliver pizza 35 hours a week at a busy pizza place or resturant, you can make good money. Bartenders will admit that. However, you are forced to deal with people and all of us know some people lack that. When I worked for 7-11 in 07, my store mgr made 35K and as a newbie, you can make that driving. Those who possess talent besides driving can make some good dough if they have the connections.
