    All good over here. Can’t complain. Me and the wife just celebrated our get out of debt goal. This job has really been a blessing. And running teams has given me a consistent paycheck and not have to worry about getting cutback back. Still running about about 2900 miles a week. It feels good to be debt free now. But I don’t want to slow down at all. I want to keep going hard as I can. I’m sorry that you guys are getting cut on hours. I won’t lie. Sometimes I wish I could get back but then I see my paycheck and I look at me kids and they get me every time. Lol. But hey stay safe guys and keep trucking.

    What’s going on there driver. Man I’ve been busy with work and house hunting. Sorry I haven’t been on here in awhile. So yea there has been a slow down in freight which means slow down in work. P&D drivers have been cut down to like 3 or 4 days I believe and they are pretty much on call but I’m sure that’s for most of the lower seniority guys. I don’t know much of the linehaul guys but I was talking to one this morning and he didn’t was telling me he had to work 7 days just make to be able to make rent. Not worth it IMO just to be home everyday and barely able to make mortgage. As far as me I’m still running. Still getting 2,900 miles a week Mon-Fri and off on the Weekend. So no change on the team side. We are pretty much set on the team side.

    So far, I'm still doing 55+ hours every week.

    This past Monday, I only worked 9h 54mins and it felt like I had a short day. I'm sitting at 37.75 hours and still have 2 regular days to go and may have to work Saturday.

    @Kstrong86
    Good luck with the house hunting. That can be enjoyable as well as frustrating.

    @Texas_hwy_287
    I hope you making a killing out there in Texas.

    @Matt1924
    I hope all is going well for you in your P&D gig.
