    Don’t listen to the naysayers, what you’re looking for is out there. You may have to fly where they want you to go. Someone above mentioned Schneider, Barr Nunn also offers a somewhat casual schedule.

    Let's say you were owner / operator, and owned your own truck outright. And were, let's say semi-retired with a Sugar-Mama. You could hook up with Landstar and take off with a load whenever you took a notion. And sit and home and NOT get paid all you wanted. No?
     
    Coffey Thanks this.

    I know a few owner ops that run sorta casual. 3-4 weeks out then home a week and a half. But everything’s paid for.
     
    Coffey Thanks this.

    Roehl and DOT www.drivefordot.com have flex schedules like that.
    ~
    4 Days On, 4 Days Off Schedule
    Dot offers a variety of scheduling options outside of a “traditional” schedule. The four days on, four days off schedule is exactly what it sounds like—you get four days on the road and then four days at home. The best part about this schedule is that you will know which days you are working and which days you will be home for the entire year!
    and:
    4×3 Flip
    Want a guaranteed schedule? Dot has a scheduling option for you! Work a rotating weekly schedule of four days on the road and three days at home one week, and then three days on and four days off the next week*. This flipping schedule is popularly called the “four-by-three flip.”
