    $2K a week before fixed costs and maintenance and wages is good money? Are they working part time?

    Beat's me Bob. I guess I will leave that up to the O/O's to decide.

    I'm a company driver for this Intermodal(95% Local) company, content with what I make. I would assume that 'well over 2k' is considered good money... but then again - I don't really know what good o/o money is!

    You can eliminate that almost every time though, with a good attitude and treating the officer with respect.

    If they want to find something wrong, they will. I agree that it is about the money. You can see it when they set up surprise inspections in certain states. You can usually tell when they are in their fundraising mode.
