    I got a good job in florida im 1 of 2 drivers in the state, private carrier, the other being my dad. Home every weekend, and a few nights during the week. I couldn't let this opportunity go by me, especially not for the bs I've been dealing with at Schneider. It just isn't worth it any longer.

    After I drop this load Monday I will have grossed over 5k. My second load, when I was coming out the house canceled on me. I still manage too put something together. It's not easy as it used to be.

    Yea I definitely have to hustle to gross 4k a week and get home weekends, but that's how I'd rather run vs long runs and resets on the road.

    Load board miles are basically air miles.
    Jill will route around as many tolls as possible and will generally route around cities on the bypasses.
    I have no clue why workflow is different than the rest and never asked.
    This is why you need to have your own routing program for trip / load planning.
    Like pcmiler or even Google maps will give you accurate miles.
