You have to work part time warehouse for 2-5 years making like 200 a week. Then you go as a relief driver on weekends still not making that much until you land a driving gig (box truck). Then you put your name on the list to be class a and have to wait. Its a long process. For guys like us its not really posssible. Thats why i suggest it to kids like OP.

HalpinUout and joseph1135 Thank this.

Personally, I never had a desire to work for UPS or FedEx. I'd rather pull hazmat/tankers than wear that manure colored uniform and deal with unions.mountaingote Thanks this. -

I knew the driver for the UPS Tonopah turn. He'd leave the same time at night and return the same time in the morning. You could set your watch to him. I'd pull over at the Goldfield hill if I got there before 3am. I was going south and he was going north. Both of us were pulling triples. I'd hear him pulling the grade and he'd make sure I was up and ready to drive. That was back in the 1990's and he was making about the same as we were hauling gasoline. It was good but nothing to write home about. The thing that set him and us apart from others were the benefits. He actually talked me into going to work for ARCO. I owe him a lot for that.

I think he's talking about revenue for o/o after they've been there a long time and got a lot of raises.

Well it's the average flip flop wearing, obese, cankles having driver that delivers stuff that people need so chew on that for a while.

We all have choices we have to make and these guys are the way they are because of a myriad of BAD choices they made over the alternative good ones.
