    Negative. Drug dealing is 24/7.

    I had a 4 day week for awhile between my flatbed jobs. It was great, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, off Thursday, then out to Buffalo on Friday. Only bad thing was I wouldn't get done Friday night 'til about 9pm

    McLane offers 4 day weeks, but it's usually a 2 day route that you do twice a week...

    Just wait for the next recession. I started at my last job when they were working 4 day weeks.

    I think 4 day weeks are spread pretty thin across the industry. A company here and there may offer it.

    With current rates O/O is probably a lot of 7day work weeks right now

    Companies doing Dollar Tree accounts have 4 on 3 off, but they are using new drivers to keep pay low..

    I currently do it. No benefits just hourly salary and you have to load and unload sometimes.. I plan on doing OTR again after I get through with some stuff cause the money is bad.
