    Ok thanks for clarifying that for me and that's not too bad on your behalf considering you've been driving 28 years. Was that all with Averitt?

    Trucking is a 24/7/365 year job... what holidays you get off is between you and your dispatch.

    Thank you for those sacrifices. It allowed me to stay how and enjoy my family. You truckers are truly an American treasure.

    Nope.

    LOL.

    With that said if you are lucky you will get a few days in a hotel usually a fleabag.

    Im accustomed to that because there are sometimes no loads for love or money anywhere. And what is really bad is that they want to load you where you are right there, in 2 weeks.
