    Yes I do. I have a different mindset then most. Once I leave my house I consider my self working. I want to do everything in my power to maximize income.
    I reset 5 days ago, have 22 hours left and resetting again. I delivered yesterday at 2 and ran to the yard. I'll be reset tonight after midnight a bit and then I'll run to calexico. I was given the load today at 1 with 24 hour drop in peachtree ga. I would have to drag my feet and make it by Sunday night. I'll reset, be there Sunday morning and ready with good hours for Monday for a long run.

    You do one heck of a job trip planning. When do you start looking for a place to take your ten?

    About an hour to go.... I have an idea how far I may make it when I start. But I don't bother looking for a spot till I'm down to an hour...

    12 quit a week, 12 more Hire on
    Just like any big company
    A driver factory
    Unless you're a company pet (see above)
    You'll starve
    I've run my tail off
    Begged for miles
    Gone home 3 times in 9 months
    Once for one day
    This week I got 700 miles
    My dm said I was lucky to get anything.
    Don't drink the Kool aid.

    As far as I know, no one
    But I'm sure I have now and don't much care
    Not like they can make things worse
    I'll jump this ship at my first decent opportunity.
    I'm done on this thread
    Too depressing
    Peace out

    RT are you the yard hustler? DHT seems to be highly recomended. I dont drive for them. Ive been otr for 18 years and have never had a 700 mile week, except when I was home 5-6 days, and Ive been with some low life companies.
    Hope things pick up for you.

    @coueshunter is there a good chance I can get a non-smoker truck?
