    Yea they don't have refrigerators so the money on the road thing might be something to think about too

    Liquid probably isnt getting a ton of miles though I coukd be wrong. OT adds up quick and he isnt blowing 600$ a month OTR. Thats why

    I figure dry bulk isn't backing alot so would i probably wouldn't be a shoe in at a local dry van company after that, am I right in assuming that?

    The other job would probably be even less backing.

    Honestly if ya'll think 17/18 an hour is good, I might have to reconsider trucking as a lifestyle.

    I dont at all but live in AK where we have higher wages. I make 28 but get all OT I want. Have a few buddies drive local in Atlanta and only make 16-18. Just saying for a family guy 18$ and home isnt horrible and zero OTR living expenses.
