I understand where you are coming from but there are 2 sides to this coin. What other industries have no sick days, no personal days, and only 2 holidays a year if youre lucky. There is room for a little give and take in the system. If I need a day or 2 off Im taking them, and if the output they get from me on the rest of the days a year isn't enough to justify that then Im happy to take my services elsewhere where people are more reasonable. In all honesty, I don't really want to work for a company that is that close to the brink anyway.

I feel bad for the OTR drivers out there on the job 24/7 and getting out of the truck after 3weeks of being on the job
They get to spend 3 whooping days home with family ,all for what? 47cmp? .....really ? And it's a good thing if they roll all week and weekend 3000 miles ? ....what? ,and how much is that for a pay check $1500 bucks before uncle sam gets his so now were talking $1200 take home ? Oh but wait they're not going home ,gotta send that $ home and figure out the rest on living on the road ....truth is most of these rookie OTR drivers will not make it OTR for 2yrs experience ,if they married ,they end up in devorce court paying child support ....."whamm" problem solved no reason to come home now
no reason to get a bachelor pad apt. ....just live in the truck ....now you're in hook & sinker ,no reason to for them worry about the truck rollin 3000 miles a week ,just do whatever they tell you for free or else now you lose your rolling highway hobo home and you will have to unplug your only friend now ,the CB radio.....wow "keep it " -

Don't work for USX. I am a former recruiter and we were taught how to lie. Just don't work for them. Everything a recruiter tells you is a lie. You won't average that much money a week and you definitely won't be home everyday. The Dollar Store accounts are ran illegally and you won't be paid anything.

How are they run illegal ?
