    I'm light as a feather man.....I'm sorry man, it's just in my nature to point out an ill-timed joke or comment. You're right, though. I don't know you.

    It was like 5 days out, and then back for a 34 reset, and there drivers were grossing like 70k a year, which isn't terrible but if you have years experience you should be makeing at least 6 figures in 2025.

    I'm as hard as a rock. You're apologizing and busting my at the same time. You reminds me so much of my brother LOL. Ok man, I accept. Thanks for stepping up and addressing, there's no such thing as a ill timed joke unless you got a wife LOL!. I've enjoyed reading your thread and your journey. Much Respect. Ok, All the Best.

    Lol.... it was a sarcastic apology...all in good spirit though. I don't even like apologies honestly. If I do something inadvertent, then that's one thing. If I do something bad, particularly something that shouldn't have happened in the first place, I'll just admit that I fouled up and work on doing better. It's always bothersome to me when a celebrity says or does something out of line and they only apologize because of negative publicity. In that regard, it's hard to apologize with authenticity. I certainly don't like when people apologize to me after wrongdoing. Just do better. That's the best form of apology anyway.

    I respect you brother, funny thing you say you're hard as a rock....I actually have the rock in my truck that went through my windshield 5 years ago.....some ### hole threw it off an overpass. It's a cool souvenir lol......now I gotta admit that you're right about an I'll timed joke when it comes to having a wife..........now that I think about it deeply, I think that's how the phrase "Resting ##### Face" got invented lmao....I appreciate the respect and much love right back at ya.

    6 figures would be nice, but i really don't think it's that many jobs that truly pay 6 figures for real. I think 70 to 80k is probably about the average..I think for an OTR company you'd need a combination of a lot of miles and a lot of accessory pay, perhaps all endorsements. Endorsements seem to be more valuable when it comes to the local jobs like LTL, cryo, and such. I can't imagine OTR dry van or reefer making 100k with what the market is now. I personally have never grossed 100k but to be fair, I haven't worked with a company that has a lot of frills....most companies I've worked for just bombard you with miles. I don't think thats terrible for their setup I suppose. They probably run 2500 miles weekly at best with that setup.

    Its possible once you have experience, but you have to work 7 days a week, and average 333 a day, I did it at my last job but hate working that much.
