Why is anyone thinking home every weekend and it's a good a good thing?

I didn't pay attention to your screen name before, I'm a man and couldn't handle those hours,

 

haha no worries..I have horses that are spoiled on chow time & they let me know if I'm 2 minutes late haha so I've lived pretty much my whole life with early hours but the older I get the less I enjoy early hrs but still cant sleep past 4 am on my off days grrr

 

haha ya or something!!!! problem is that somethin usually is headed to the lil gals room haha

 

haha I'm lucky there I never need reading material bwahaha ohhh ewww subject change haha any whooo to the OP there's lots of options for CDL holders shoot you could eve jocky those new semis from one location to another..not sure how they pay though

 

Early to rise,
Early to bed,
Makes a man wealthy,
But socially dead.

 

The guy home weekends

 

mje I work tandem division for "Concrete Supply Company" in Fayetteville GA. We do everything from concrete plant supply / construction job support to residential needs and as I've said before you don't know "real trucking" until off road with 64,000lbs gross!

Do the math: that's routinely 14,000lbs on steering and 25,000lbs per each tandem axle ( I now SCOFF at the 18 wheeled OTR tank trucks and sand wagons that we also have ) in traffic your JAKE is ON constantly prefer to save the brakes for emergencies only!!

I too arrive at least a 1/2hour prior "punch in" receive monthly "safety bonus" to pressure wash/scrub truck almost daily most rock quarries are messy, definitely a losing dust/mud battle!

Of course running over (NOT!) 4-wheeled cel-phone fiddling IDIOTS is a rewarded plus too!!

 

Yeah, I've always loved that line. I'm all for more pay and more home time, but could never figure how to get the "more miles" into that equation. I don't want more miles, I want more pay and more home time.
