    What the miles like at the current moment? Got orientation. With them December 4th. Not sure i wanna switch just yet tho. I do t want to go back out on the road if I make 900 to 1k. I'm looking at at least 1100-1200 weekly minimum gross. They claim you'll average 1500-1700k a week.

    I'm looking to run and run hard.

    I just saw an add saying up to $90,000 A year pay. If guess this is if you are working almost every day of the year? And like running east of i35 99% of the time.

    If your day usually ends between 3 and 4 am. Where do you park? Sounds stupid but seriously I can see it being a real problem trying to park every night that late.

    Do you have a hard time parking every night after midnight? I heard normal day starts at 5 and ends at 3 or 4. Right when most places are packed in

    I have 40+ years (4+ million miles) OTR experience wit no accidents or moving violations.... EVER! I applied to Barr-Nunn for a solo OTR driver position and was contacted by a recruiter who OK'd my application and moved it to their safety department for verification. I was then notified I needed to submit my personal tax documents (W-2's) for places I'd worked that had fleets of 10 trucks or less. Say WHAT??? Even after my 10 year employment history had been confirmed Barr-Nunn wants my personal tax records just because I worked for some smaller fleet operations ? No way!!! I even hesitate to submit my Social Security number to companies that have not extended an actual hiring offer let alone reveal personal tax records. I told them if they could not just accept my confirmed employment history and squeaky clean DOT motor vehicle report then they should consider my application to be withdrawn! Truck driver shortage be ######! Even the President of the United States didn't have to submit personal tax records to get his job as leader of the free world. So, Barr-Nunn applicants be warned. If their safety department is this unreasonably anal retentive during the application vetting process you can likely anticipate even more annoying micro-management if you get behind the wheel. And... regarding their Top Ten pay rating... that is based upon their PUBLISHED pay scale and NOT on actual payroll. That rating is based on what they OFFER as pay and is not necessarily the actual pay you get

    Lets be real here. With 4mil miles run they knew they couldn't ######## you so they were trying to find another way to get you to go away. These guys dont want experienced safe drivers, they way rubes that they can #### over for a profit anyway they feel like and that will smile while they are taking it up the ### with no grease.
