Do not work there. You will drive a day cab OTR and the boss will not pay for hotels. He tries to get you to sleep in the cars you are hauling. This is ok for the first few trips, but it catches up fast.The truck does not have A/C or cruise control. You have to roll the windows up or down with 2 hands, meaning not while the truck is running. So if you drive in the rain you have 2 choices: leave the windows down, and get soaked. Or you can roll them up and let the windshield get fogged up. Last week I made $140 after hotels and food for 5 days of work. $28 a day.

Making you sleep in a car? That is horrible. I hope you are not there anymore.

The first truck I drove for my Uncle was like that, '83 western star, snow would drift around my feet in the winter, didn't complain(much) though, he was family and I didn't know any better
