I start school Monday. Probably drive for SNI

I could be wrong but I think you will get 30cpm for the first 3 mths and then 31...the other 2 cents is the bonus that you have to qualify for by working within the metrics that they established for the 1/4 in question. There should be a significant signing bonus that you should look into.

TAH can be an illusion so don't bank on 4 full days after 3 weeks...you'll make the most money by kissing your loved ones good bye and telling them you will try to swing by a couple of times over the next few years; the money is only decent if you are willing to think of this like joining the French
Foreign Legion. TAH cost you miles and will impact your bonus metric.

That Prime offer sounds rough...all depends on what your "trainer" is like...I have seen a few trainers who having to live with them for 40k day in and day out would be the 8th circle that Dante never wanted to talk about.

he's alive

 

If you call this living...

 

I will say that Trucking is a lifestyle not a JOB you either love it or hate it and that can change daily. It's not for every one and those that love it can make a good living at i. It's not easy but it can be done and your home time will improve.

 

Holy Crapp! Is it? It is Little Eddy!

 

Tenn is right! If you can stick with it, it gets better as you go and gain experience. It really is what you make it!

 

As company driver for SNI I averaged between 2500 and 3000 miles a week. Usually would hit at least the 2800 mile a week. This was in 11 western region. Prime and SNI are both good company's. Each one has different ways of giving their driver's options. Your pay isn't going to vary much ..Personally I have proven to myself that you will make more with the company you feel has the best options for you! ie..I was a driver previously so I liked SNI short training period out with the trainer. Plus they let you do all the driving. The trainer is not going sleep on you and not relying on you to act as team truck. They just want you to get comfortable with the truck and train you on the basics. If you feel you need more they will provide that also.
