2 Weeks on 1 Week Off

Hey guys I can't start school till January so I am stuck doing a lot of research until then. I'll be moving back to Nevada before I start driving and Pumpkin has a job listed in my area that has me really intruiged. I don't want to bother a recruiter yet so can anyone give me any details? I'm some one who will take less money to be home more. ( 8yo Autistic son) To me this sounds like a perfect job for me almost too good to be true. It doesn't mention slip seating (other ad's do) or being dedicated, but can you really make money setting home a week and they don't give your truck away?

They just posted another one one week out one week home. How you make any money? Can you run more if you want?

 

I didn't want to bother a recruiter since I was this far out but I guess that's their job to answer questions. So I may end up calling one.

Other ads mention if they are dedicated this one doesn't what has me so stumped LOL.

 

Thats what I thought but other ads specifically mention if it's slip seating. Oddly the ones that mention it have less home time then this one LOL

 

6 on 3 off slip seat is another job they have posted I was looking at as well how you like it? Is it a pain to haul your stuff in out? I imagine for 6 days you wouldn't need a lot of extras like TV ect. It's not a day cab is it?

Honestly the area I'm moving to has such a low cost of living 36K a year (take home) would be plenty for me in exchange for getting that much time home.

Thanks for the info very helpful.
