    I can't say much about there but it's the east coast man. Estes on the East Coast is ROUGH. It's a million terminals. Ask that bum @jtaran06 . He don't wanna work

    The potential could be there. I know it's all you can eat where I'm at. They're not telling you no

    Drop and hook if at $10. Health insurance varies man that's a rabbit hole I'm not trying to go down at the moment. It's good for us tho I have no complaints honestly.

    Drop and hook is at $10? How many drops do you guys do a night for sets?

    I’m making $94K+ a year pulling doubles in ground but I don’t get drop pay. I’m working six days a week.

    I’m looking to come to Estes and work six days a week. Is there a reward for working the sixth day? I’m gonna rent my house out so I don’t need to come home.

    Working on my second duplex cash now. So I’m looking to pull home $108K-$120K a year.

    There is a $100 6 day bonus going on right now. I've been working 6 or sometimes 7 days a week this year. I'm on pace to hit 130K+. As long as there's freight, Estes will feed you. I'm a schedule guy and still run recap hours when I want to. It's all about you knowing how to run!

    Nice I can run. I’m only able to get 2498 miles a week in ground. It sucks. We have .70 cents but I can’t get additional miles. Hopefully big E takes me on. That level of income will have me set in another five years for life

    Can I ask how much do that pay for cell phone?

    $30 for the cell phone pay.

    I mean you should be good man but that east coast is just something else. I hate going east for extra board.

    I’m curious why it’s bad? Is it dropping and hooking too much. Or wait times. Or just stopping at multiple terminals.
