Even flipping burgers pays more

Or you could go to a company that has freight waitibg and will get you in a truck.

 

You got a sample of what's yet to come.

 

Trucks air out quickly. Get a truck, open the windows, and roll. Or you could be s prima donna and refuse to work them whine that you don't get paid.

 

Pick the right company. DH is new, 4 weeks out of training and hasn't sat at all. They have him preplanned for his next load before he bumps the dock on his current load.

As for $$? Well, he's making almost twice what he made at the foundry and it's a hell of a lot easier.

 

The last company truck I was assigned smelled strongly of smoke. I did several things.
First, I wiped down all the vinyl surfaces. I paid special attention to the curtains as they're often folded up. I also vacuumed the upholstery.

Finally, I aired it out as much as I could. It was about this time of year, so AC wasn't always needed. I believed also had the shop change the cabin air filter.

Inside of about ten days, you could barely notice any smoke smell.

Good luck.

 

No, you simply had a bad experience.
I've had those as well, but it isn't normally like that. Well, not at my company. I'm not sure who you work for or how things normally work there.

And that $10 x 60 = $600 per week isn't that good. You should easily do twice that driving a truck, even if you are a bit lazy like me.

And how can you work at Hardee's 60 hours a week and only make $600?
20 hours of that should be at 1.5x = $15 per hour.

$0.39 per mile 2500 to 3000 miles a week equals $975 - 1170.

 

Really?
Odors kill CPAP machines?

I'm presuming there are plenty of CPAP users that also smoke in the truck.
Do they have to replace their machine every week or something?

 

I've been on CPAP for ten years as of this month. Unless you're blowing smoke directly into the thing, it shouldn't get ruined by the ambient air.
