Getting Tired of The Bait and Switch and then the trck school LIE

The hours vary...that's why I stated my average take home per month...everyone can have an exceptionally good or bad week. BTW the other guys that started with me are all at about the same take home. I don't feel it's "oilfield" money yet, but it IS rising. I tend to work around 50-60 hours each week.

Housing costs will vary as well. I rented a 750sqft one bedroom apartment in the nicer part of town so I pay $1050/mo. but some guys live in Rv's or smaller apartments...still others have families or room mates.

BTW my take home is after paying for top line medical/dental/vision and also contributing 5% to my 401K.

 

Keep ur chin up kid ,atleast u are wise enough catch on to what this industry has become ....its a sad thing to see but it has become acceptable i guess .....we will all pay a heavy price for this sooner or later
.....mark my words

 

Don't mind helping someone out at all...will do everything possible . But it really takes a pair to come onto a forum and ask for advice on how to break the law....even if I had some advice or even knew of a job that was open you'd be the last person I would call.....Asking for help help is one thing ..but you're waaaaaaay past that one...waaaaaaay past.

 

I started at .26 OTR

 

When u asked how to fudge experience for two years....when they pull your mvr its going to tell the date that u got your liscense.....Just pay your dues like everyone else...you dont want to hurt your career by lieng or getting fired for lieng on a application

 

Alot of guys trying to go local these days...the only way I see it happening is if u pulling a tank...because alot of ppl dont want to mess with hazmat. ..u have a better chance to go local...I hate local to be honest. ...14 hour days 6 or 7 days a week...I get more time off staying out 14 taking off 4

 

You just explained the reason for my post with the comment above sir.....If you can't get serious enough about getting the job to start with....then you'll not be serious enough to be able to make the life and death decisions that all drivers make countless times a day....This is a very , very , very serious profession my friend....No room for anything else....period.
