    I am not sure what the CPM is or what they start you out on but I'd be happy earning 600 a week. Of course I wouldn't refuse freight for the extra cash. By the way do they offer direct deposit? Appreciate the response and thanks! Hopefully see you all out there.

    I have barely idled my truck since getting it and just sweat it through these nights but lately that hasn't been an option. It is HOT in Texas. It has been over 100 during the day and about 80 at night. You can't keep cool at those temperatures.

    I idle if needed, I need to sleep well to do my job a s soaking the bed in sweat is not a option with me. If its to hot for me to get comfortable that #### truck is idling.

    Cool, Thank you. I am hoping to start Monday next week. Still waiting to hear back from my recruiter. I had to do a bunch of online paperwork with the electronic sig the other day. Hopefully I get approved.

    The trainee hit a bumper today making his third accident. I can't save him this time. I yelled stop and he didn't stop quick enough.

    Was he just out of CDL school or something? I graduated a month ago and haven't driven since then. Bit nervous I might be a little rusty to start off with.
