    Wow, thank you!

    I know the trucks are governed at 65mph, but if I'm going downhill I may reach 70. I read one driver's complaint that he got written up for doing 73 in a 75mph zone?

    So basically I'd be out five days without my dog, then home two days with him? For 5 out & 2 home, there are other $75-90k options that allow dogs. Is there any compelling reason I should choose Walmart over them?

    Umm, maybe you like to be micromanaged to the point that you have to call some clown and request to get in your own car and drive home on your 10hr break?

    How can you be the "true captain of your ship" when Walmart puts all kinds of restrictions on you?

    You gotta cross your T's and dot your I's at wm. Trying to skate anything there will end badly. They're still a top carrier for a reason. They don't mess about and you don't either.

    Way above avg pay will come with some not so fun restrictions
