What is good pay? And what’s fair now in trucking?

Operations Manager

 

hey, you can always move back to the windy, always work, and always good pay.

 

The best money I ever made has been in heavy haul. Company I worked at I started out in a rollback (though I had a class A license), then got into the Landoll, then the RGN. The RGN was the big bucks. I was home every night except maybe 2 or 3 nights a year (if that) and worked if I recall correctly only two Saturdays in the nearly 4 years I worked for that company. $85,000 was good, in 2014. In 2015, when I unfortunately lost control of my mouth and got fired, May of 2015 to be exact, I was sitting at $50k. I would have definitely hit 100, I think.

 

This post needs to be pinned on the bulletin board at every rookie training company. Fantastic info right here !!

 

Get your year in. Two jobs looks better than three. Teaming with 6 months your trusting your life with someone else. How good of a driver are they? 140 a year is a crazy amount of money.

 

20 to 30k is in which tax bracket? The other thing, is if you can put money in a 401k you will shield it at the upper tax bracket. 33% tax bracket, means you invest a 1.0 dollars rather than keeping .66 dollars.

 

I think my mind is in the Obama tax rate era. Personally above 70k a year contribute something to a 401k. 50k is enough for me to live off of, but I make choices of what to get. I don't spend much of what I make above 70k, I get everything I want and save.
