    Sounds like you are doing fine if you don't mind the hours. I spend between $75 and $125 per week on the road. Depends on how much I crave REAL food.

    Don't forget newone716, unless you paid up front for the training. You're still on the hook for the training cost. Finding a job makes it easier to pay.
