How the heck do you put up with this? Reefer and sitting.

Your post reads like I wrote it.

That's why I never encourage rookie drivers to start out running reefer loads.

Welcome to the reefer world -- the buttcrack of trucking.

I do know the frustration @Tb0n3
fortunately, I haven't had to worry about any of that at KLLM Expedited. I sleep like a baby team-hauling refrigerated from East to West. One the nights that I am unable to rest easy, I just sip a little ZZZQuil. I've been with this company for almost 9 months and I still haven't had to deal with OSD. When companies kick me out, I'll just PC to a safe haven so that I can finish my 10 hour reset. I would've been experiencing crazy setbacks if I'd have decided to go with K&B as a Road Warrior

 

I used to say the same thing. I was content with suffering for $1200 to $1500 a week solo, until I started getting $2500 to $3100 a week driving teams. It's not for everybody though. Stress will come with any job. It gets way more hectic when things dont fall in line while your time clock is dwindling

 

I respect that, man

 

I rest easily while I'm waiting. Once I'm rested, I'll either open a book or get outside the truck to exercise. I'll do anything except stress because the money will come.
