    Pam= poverty and misery
    i lasted 3 months, which is hard imagine..was on the road for 11 weeks, couldn't get home and made around 450 after taxes. I made a decision I could do better and did. Gl the trucks are nice though and run around 65

    PAM makes you team drive with another rookie for 6 months after you're done training. I don't know about you burin wouldn't be able to sleep knowing some dude I don't know is behind the wheel. That and the fact he is a rookie. At least if I'm driving, I am in control of my truck. It may not be my time to go but it may be his. No thanks. 6 months in a tiny truck living with another dude? No sir.

    Henderson is a 4 week training (classroom/range), 3-4 weeks OTR with a trainer then you're cut loose. On your own. PAM also doesn't allow pets. Henderson does. And they pay .38cpm.

    That would be false advertising they only pay .30 to .32 dedicated that's why we call them poverty and misery
