Prob a stupid mistake on my part :/

You can make decent money 1400+ every week as a driver not saying impossible but are you a robot? Normally that requires a good hustle I made 1200-1400 otr all but 1 week and I was regional area I went had a blizzard and unlike the other drivers who wanted play with it I chose netflix at the truck stop. Now fast forward to I live locally near an oilfield capital most don't pay high wage rather bulk of it paid in OT. ill say this we had people who would work 20 hours daily for as long they could and take breaks whenever they needed and most were young people and a few older folks. The ones doing 20+ hours daily are the ones looking to make 100k yearly. Just remember there's gonna be a time when you body can't handle it or if you have another person at home you better be taking care of them and not just money or they will find another body for that bed. I have know too many very fit soldiers and even more recent times oilfield workers they come home find out there lady had someone else in that bed.

 

What is your base rate of pay without any bonuses?

 

I guess the OP should have figured....if it REALLY paid that much, the position would be filled. Drivers would kill for a regional 95K a year job.

 

Ever thought about going to an LTL carrier? You would be home daily, weekends off, and potentially making over 80K after some longevity. Benefits are also decent and most give paid holidays plus PTO accrual. Just a thought... It's all about what works best for you.

 

We often see suggestions to talk to other drivers for the inside view. How would that conversation get started?

Troll drivers in truckstops and hope they don't think your trying convert them to Jehovah? Use the "talk to drivers" link in tenstreet? That seems like a paid liar offshore is going to spoon feed lies.

 

They tried that when I was still with Western Express.
Needless to say, avoided them like the plague!
