Uhm do you start the truck or does the planner?
Seriously just say no
IluvCATS, diesel drinker and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
back in my earlier years, one day per week...off.
as time progressed, i took off when ever i wanted, and passed on my freight to a lower senior drivers.
now, i am local, so i have every weekend off. (saturday morning when i get back, off) back to work Monday nights
i have heard of some places, you work 4 weeks, get one full week off. but you might have to give up your truck. especially if you park at a terminal.
too many variables out there that are available.Trucker61016 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
I like the idea of leaving Sunday/Monday and getting back Thursday/Friday and having a two day weekend. It doesn't always work out, and usually ends up being "get home Saturday around noon and leave Monday at 8am" but it's still a "two day weekend" just not stretched out to two full days off.
But I'm doing this for the money and it's getting a whole lot nicer weather-wise, so if that means a 48 hour turn around into the next week, then let's do this. I want us to get on with our lives and start a family, and if sacrificing some time at home is what I need to do then so be it.Trucker61016 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
Well what do you want. Sure seems your posting of late is all about Dave or the cats. Really, whats in it for the company? How do you expect them to make any profits off your hard work. You did get to the house right.
Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
I want more money.
More miles, and
more hometime.
I don't want to have to do all this personal stuff on my hometime. I just want to relax, it doesn't seem very fair.Diesel Dave and buddyd157 Thank this. -
Yes. Friday. But now I'm being unloaded and have to get the truck serviced.

If he has some bone for me I will consider his offer.
Seriously Dave just say "no". It's easy, I do it all the time lol.Trucker61016, Diesel Dave, bzinger and 1 other person Thank this. -

Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
