    4 Tens on street and a day on the rock at 1 1/2 they sure do.
    If you don't drive one can work 14 hr days 7 days a week
    Just depends on where your at and your seniority.

    But if you did that you would end up working holidays which contradicts the original statement

    How can working a 4 tens bid at 12 or more hours a day and another 5 th day at time and one half turn into working holidays ?
    Again just depends upon your location and seniority as to your earning potential .

    We have to put our first 2 weeks in the hole. So I'm waiting on my first pay stub to see exactly how it then I can give you a better answer. I had 3600 miles last week you will do a lot of team runs. So far it's OK just gotta get used to waiting by the phone and running teams.

    They plan on hiring 18 more drivers. A lot of guys come here and quit. Cause of the schedule and team runs from what I understand. When the recruiter called me about the job she said u could run teams if you want to. Haha there's no such thing as if you want to if that's available that's what you will run. I'm not really excited about running teams but I will give the job a try so I'm still here. I'm bottom man on the board 173 I think they hired 2 more this week. I've met guys been here 2 yrs still running teams so it might last awhile.

    It's a pretty easy laid back job if you can deal with the teams and being on call. A lot of older guys here that's getting ready to retire. Most guys I have talked to that's been here around 2 to 3 yrs say first yr they made about 55k first yr. 60 to 65 2nd yr.
