    Won't have to worry about those checks bouncing or your fuel card turned off.
    Wish I would have started my career now instead of 30 years ago , there's money to be made and the future looks awesome.

    Going to be interesting. Amazon is going to have to have a good compensation program to attract and keep good drivers.

    With today's E-logs and regs they will have to adopt something other than their heavy handed treatment of warehouse workers. If you stop to whizz you'll get a call. "Productivity down, get back in that truck" :biggrin_25523:

    The people in the warehouse don't make anything and neither do the people in the office. Why would the truck drivers have it any better?
