so how did everyone make out this year?

Not OTR, but working for US Foods, should gross 63k this year. 4 day work weeks, averaging about 45 hours a week. Weekends and Wednesdays off. We just merged(got bought out) with Sysco Foods, so Im going to enjoy and remember this cake work year since it's never happening again.

 

That's good stuff. Yeah, I figured it wasn't OTR, especially with that much home time. May be time for me to look for some local work. Getting tired of the road.

 

avg for first year driver but not enough for hauling fuel.

 

Should be 60k or almost. Maybe 58k.

Mon-Fri, weekends off. LTL, lowest man on the linehaul board. No bid.

And yes, that meets my goal. This is the end of my second year with a CDL. First full tax year was 44k.

 

This is why I really want to do LTL. It seems the best choice for trucking What company do you work for Oi?

 

Yes, I work for Roehl.

 

AAA Cooper

 

57k out about 5-9 weeks at a time. Not this year.

 

2013 was the year I finally got into the drivers seat! got my class A over 5 years ago and have been hammered down by my felony record from nearly 20 years before. in under 3 months was offered 850 a week salary at the local based company I work for for doing the 2 NJ dedicated weekly runs they have .... id have to say I am feeling great about the way last year turned out for me!

 

Good for you driver! It's not easy getting over that sort of thing. I'm lucky in that I've never had that issue, but it's just more reason to do everything you can to steer kids away from that life choice that puts a nasty mark on you forever. Congratulations on your perseverance in getting over that hump! Onward and upward!!
