    i think (from my perspective), best to take the reset when it's time to do so, as to stave off burning out, or getting overly tired. even if unfortunately, it is not at the house. but at least, at a full service truck stop

    Zigstar, A week isn’t enough hometime for me. That week always flies by and then it’s back to reality. Lol

    Do you earn any kind of vacation time? I had a route like that when my kid was a baby and I loved it. Home late Friday night and back on road Sunday afternoon.

    They don’t, was told farther north Baltimore, and farther west Houston and Ft Worth. Some Midwest and back to Florida. It’s whole subsidiary of Coca-Cola.
