    I've been approved at Oakley, and I'm trying to decide if hopper bottom or pneumatic is better for me.
    I live in Oklahoma smack-dab between Ft. Smith, AR and OKC. I'm about 45 minutes from Catoosa, so I know hopper would be good....but...
    If the money is really there in hoppers, and you can get home every weekend, then great! However, I'd rather be home on the 11th day out, and have every other Friday, Saturday and Sunday off to match my wife's schedule.
    Is that doable???

    Also, I've only done hopper bottom work once, and that was for about a month and a half. And I have 3 years pneumatic experience. But, I'm interested in the plastic vacuum pneumatic division. So... anyone here have that experience, what's different about the vacuum pneumatic vs. bulk pneumatic? What do they make, miles per week, areas they run and... how long does Oakley expect you to be out on that division?

    Thanks I'm advance to all who answer, and for your help!!
