Night Train, that's pretty much how my trainer sees it though he's not making the money you are. He makes decent money, in addition to what he gets paid when he's training. He's not logging those kind of miles though. He gets paid by the pull. The main thing for him is...it's about personal contentment, being home every night, and he enjoys training too. He freely admits he could go for the money but he likes being home every night for his family.
We drive in the city mostly and I'm really glad because this city driving has really helped me grow in being aware of everything as I drive all day. So much so...I haven't even learned PeopleNet yet. My trainer has rightfully focused on driving first.
Once my training is done I think I'll go with the "Division 9" if I can, because that division of drivers make the longer runs.

Not sure if this has been mentioned or maybe its just common knowledge I just didn't know. Sometimes one of the front pins won't go in. I tried an experiment when one would not go in. I drove it forward briefly (like 3 mph) and jammed the brakes. It's worked 3 out of 3 times. Went in as easy as a porn star. Or will I be scolded for doing this as it may be wrong? And for the porn star thing.
