    I was lucky to get 2000 a week. It was ok..just not enough $$$. May isn't known to be high paying by any means. They are starter company and they know it..its their biz plan. As far as a company they weren't bad just low pay. If it was more $$$ I may have stuck with it longer but I went back otr.
    Paper mills.. most all of your loads are gonna be heavy, the places are kind of spread out all over the place, they stink, dirty..but once you go to the same ones routinely, its not too bad. Some I unloaded shredded boxes paper etc and had to blow out the trailer, no biggie. If I wanted to be home more I would consider it again if the $$$ was right. I would say the bad days equaled the ok days, it was tolerable for a while. Can't say it's worse than reefer.

    And when you're home for a reset, isn't it usually only a 34? Not much of a life.
