    You have a real problem . Not only the tickets but being out of school 18 months with no experience makes that training useless.

    Yeah he shoulda put that out there right from the start I wouldn't have wasted my time with my earlier response. Geez how many times do we see someone post something and then a few posts or pages into it they finally give up the rest of the story and then it all makes sense. Epes wont even look at him with a background like that. Maybe try Carolina cargo out of rock hill. They'll hire #### near anyone. But being out of school that long, even they probably will pass.

    Yeah I wish I would have known that nobody would hire me until my wreckless was at least 3 years old I wouldn't have went to trucking school when I did.

    Going to really depend on you and your dispatcher. There are so many variables I wouldn't know how to give you an average. Hopefully when done training you can plan on $400-$600 but like I said there's no way of knowing. A big factor will be how your dispatcher is and you interact with each other. Another very big factor will be home time. If you are staying out for 6-8 weeks at a time then you will certainly average more. Going home really messes up your pay. Usually out of whack for three weeks every time you go home. Breakdowns mess up your pay. Getting sick messes up your pay. Multiple crappy loads messes up your pay. Not knowing what you are doing messes up your pay. The biggest of all, every time you say no or give your dispatcher a hard time or lip this will most certainly mess up your pay!
