    I've got a friend on it in auburn. It's just okay really. Long days, he goes to Detroit a lot. It is the Walmart account.

    I believe CR England got Walmart in Illinois. I always made 1000 on Walmart account, with Werner and marten. Easy account to be on. Just gets boring quick

    It's really tough to get a grand weekly with 3 months.

    Look into LTL Service for providing Provisions into Resturants via Darden (They sold Red Lobster Chain, aka MBM) which will provide a salary, but you are going to work your ### off and double check a stack of bills in the other hand because any losses will get charged back to you. Not fun to pay for 90 pounds of south pacific seafood because you stuck the box into the wrong delivery...

    Trucking is feast and famine. During times of plenty when money overfloweth thy wallet, you zip it and put as much as possible into your other pocket and KEEP. IT. THERE. #### it.

    Trust me, you will hit a week with hardly nothing moving such around the holidays time period etc and reach into that other pocket to tide over a week more. You will be glad to have it.

    When the twin towers fell in NYC on 9-11, it was the ultimate famine because our Payroll People literally were destroyed. It would be 8 weeks before pay started flowing again. That made it personal. But we had several thousand ready to go and it did us well. We did not like it at all, but it was there. Otherwise that Bin Laden would have managed to stop at least one truck for good,

    In time, if you stay with the outfit and be presentable and actually nice to all the company officers you will eventually gain trust and possibly a trainer position after some years. That comes with a salary and a host of responsibilty. You will probably have that at least once oppertunity in your life time on the road, however many years and decades it takes you to gain that kind of pull.

    I was told the same thing back in the 80's as a pup by the old ones and here I stand telling you the same thing they told me then. As their daddies told them decades before I was born.

    +1 I made roughly a grand a week in my first trucking job over ten years ago straight out of CDL school. Ran reefers out to Cali from the midwest.

    They've had ads on Craigslist to move people to gas city for years now. Somethings got to be very wrong out there
