    Where is your location? If we know your location; state & nearest city, we can give you some leads.

    The good jobs are the ones convenient to you and with the right amount of hometime/pay that fits your situation. Some drivers will give up some pay to get more hometime and some drivers prefer more pay and less hometime. Only you can decide which is the right balance for you.

    Are you looking for special treatment because you were in the military?

    If he is, he should move to Nevada. The state offers lots of benefits, including discount on property taxes.

    I'm in NC but I'm willing to relocate for the right job, my last 2 jobs have been with the state, I'm just burnt out on working for lil to nothing each month. I have a family and I see that alot of truckers who made it a career besides being away not have many financial problems.

    So 92F has something to do with trucking? It is a vague reference that many of us do not know about.
    What does it involve?
