Chinatown Thanks this. -
Thanks for the insight! You need a blog!
-
So can you mention the company name? Sounds like Nabors to me as well.
Anyway, good luck and keep us updated. -
There is nothing in my limited otr experience that can even come close to comparing to what I do every single day.
As for that wage...... Jesus!!!!! Drivers up here are pulling $35/hr +Patrickm213 Thanks this. -
dustinbrock, Patrickm213 and sanook Thank this.

I'd prefer not to say the name of company on a public forum. -
I pay my drivers 30% of the gross, the truck makes $106/hr. 15 hour days, 20 days a month. Includes transportation, a camp to stay in with meals included, a pickup so if the truck has issues they can go home and a company cell phone. We're in the bush in logging country.
Closer to oil cities they pay around $26/hr with overtime after 8 hours. 15 hour days as well.
The company I haul for hires rookies all the time and pays accordingly and usually supplies accommodation.
I personally don't hire rookies because I remember what I did (or didn't know how to do) to the trucks I first drove. -
Do they hire rookie Americans though?
