2024 winter

I hope you are pulling down $3000 a week working in the Siberia of America.

 

Most of us that work this area make alot more than that during the winter (if you own your own truck) otherwise I would not be here, and I have nothing to do with the oil fields, I would think they make more than me

 

I’ve lived here my whole life. So I really don’t know any different

Did just under 130k last year. It’s not bad, but I also work Monday through Friday, I have lots of freedoms, I start when I want, take lunch if I want, I’m basically left alone to just do my job. I work for a small mom and pop company that’s been around for decades. I think @Dennixx kinda knows who I work for. Our other trucks stomp around in the same geographical area he runs.

 

I was there at the same time.

 

Went from 34+ in Manila to -3 in London UK on Thursday!

 

You talking 'C?

 

“These guys get out here, and they’ve never seen these harsh conditions," he said. "They gotta go out to California and pick up a load of cheese or vegetables or whatever and they don’t know what they’re in for. They’re not mentally equipped, they’re not physically equipped. Their trucks are not equipped. It’s just a nightmare.”

Its sad how these companies through all these new guys to the wolves with no training, the wind on i80 is an unbelievable force, I spend my time in North Dakota which can also be horrible, but the wind in Wyoming along that I80 corridor is something else. I never thought much of the steepness of it along the mountain passes I didn't think it was to bad but that wind around that area is something else

 

Yeah
