    Right. With a post like that, I'm sure you have the aptitude for that. ;). I make .71 cpm as a company driver and work around 40 hours a week, hopefully your driving career goes better than your assumptions.

    Have you considered Roehl? They got very flexible/liberal home time if you wanna take it a little easier. Also $8k sign on bonus is you run full time the first year.

    I drove for Hirschbach a few years ago. Within a few weeks most of the drivers in my orientation class had quit because of low pay. They issued me a replacent truck with a glazed axle and brake problems.... luckily no one was hurt when fully loaded a stop from 45mph had all i could do to stop the rig. Low pay, unsafe equipment wasnt worth it...

    I wish everyone could be in my shoes (well, they could actually, but there's only so many necks I can get to in a day) and HAVE to take a week off and hang upside down every month. People's mental constitution would fair much better I think.

    It shouldn't take too much brain power to figure out....the way you make money in this industry if you are paid by mileage, is maximizing your available 70 hours. There is no legal mandate to take a 34 hour restart. If you have a load that allows it or enough downtime between loads than by all means use the reset. "Money don't mean nothing" and "it too much work" to run your 70 hours hard just signals laziness to me. It's obvious the OP hasn't been in this line of work for very long but thinks he knows everything, and represents the generally lazy attitude of the "new breed"- wants a driving job but doesn't feel like doing it. If I had my own company similar to where I work now, and this person somehow go hired to drive for me and displayed that kind "I don't feel like working" mentality and getting mouthy with my dispatchers he'd be fired as soon as the probation period was up. He'd be better off flipping burgers.
