    Hi everyone,

    This might be a stupid question, but I need to ask. :)

    I currently have a vaild Class A License with no endorsements....Hazmat or Doubles, etc.

    I drove for about 4 years before taking a 2 year "break". No accidents, or terminations, etc.

    I'll be enrolling in school (RoadMaster) within the next month or so for a refresher course and then hopefully hooking up with Schneider once I am done, looking to start in mid to late March, 2012.

    If I work hard, work safe, am professional, organized, responsible and communicate well, can I expect to make at least $25,000 - $30,000 in my first year?

    Any advice and/or insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    John

    I made $40k running regional the first 6 months last year. Then finishing the remainder working the 14/7 home run.

    Always take comments with a pinch of salt. Different drivers get different results when it comes to pay.
