    Here i set getting loaded with flyash at 5:30 in the morn left the house at 3am to get to the yard at 4:12am. I plan on getting 2 loads today then head to the factory i work maintenance in and work 11a-11p. Then tomorrow 11a-11p back in factory then Thursday 9a-8p in truck and 11p-11a in factory then factory 11p-11a friday night. Then sunday 3a-3p.

    I’ve been thinking about going back over the road. Sadly i would probably have more quality time at home with my wife and kids.

    This week i expect to make $2800. But most is around $1600 because I don’t alway do so many 12s at the factory.

    i want to go with a company with a load board or one that will let you call brokers and get loads off dat board. Looking at other source than company for truck such as sfi and others

    Maybe you should read and you would realize that i never drive after 14 hours a-day always 10hrs off before i drive and never drive after my 70 is up but drive some days before going to work in a tire factory doing maintenance
