    If you take 5 days off after working only 14, you will be on food stamps.

    And what is your student going to do while you're maxing and relaxing on home time? A student will be with you for 24-28 days. Are you really going to take a week off in the middle of a student's training?

    I don't think that's going to work.

    Btw, there is no mileage pay for L/O. It is 70% of line haul + 97% of FSC.

    You can do 1500 on average. 3k is a pipe dream.
