    Not to burst your bubble, but even if the miles were offered, probably not. Driving for 10+ hours a day, 7 days a week right out of the gate isn't going to happen. It'll kick your ###, trust me. :biggrin_25525: Until you get used to the crazy hours (your going to swing shifts pretty much daily), dealing with the traffic, belligerent shippers and the inherant delays they love to bury you with, learning to maximize you HOS, and get over the "pucker factor" once your turned loose and dealing with the above on your own, 3000/week for the first year or so is going to be tough to nail down.

    Yea I am thinking the same thing. I know at first I will be a nervious wreck being on my own but I am sure that will ease with time. I would assume the miles will increase as I grow more comfortable and they see that I can be trusted to deliver on time and be safe also!

    Those miles used to be easily doable at Millis, but not since the introduction of electronic logs. Millis is quickly becoming like Roehl. Slow, stripped down underpowered trucks. Not getting drivers home when promised. The fit really hit the shan when that guy out in New York caused a fatality while watching porn with a jacked up log book. . Most of their veteran drivers have had it and are running away from this crumbling outfit. The only ones sticking around are the ones close to retirement.
