I live in the truck (Otr) and I'm using a family members address in Tx to avoid income tax
I grew in North Jersey and my Dad still lives there so Im aware of the cost of living . I was in the miltary and ever since I got out I've been a vagabond
Im Just trying to get off the road and get something local . It doesn't have to be a dream job but $28 an hour seems good to me. My Dad makes $25 per hour driving a truck after 35 years with the same company and he's living well
Dunkin Donuts / National DCP

not a bad place to work at, i'd be happy working the yard myself. don't compare the cost of living in NJ to N.E.drvrtech77 Thanks this. -
Ok ,Im just trying to find out info about the job from people that work there .
$28 seems pretty ok to me just to drive a truck compared to the other similar trucking jobs up there
Thanks for your info -
This thread is a couple years old, but I know two co-workers that worked for them. Both were route drivers. I might be able to get some info on Linehaul if I get a chance to talk to them......
Anyone ever drive for Dunkin Donut's?gpf87 Thanks this. -
Thanks for the info . That is the one thread that I initially found during my search
Sho Nuff Thanks this. -
as i said, $28 per hour (with OT is good)...however, our taxes here ARE HIGH as well...so (for me as an example), I NEVER WORK OT, as nearly HALF that earned money goes to taxes..
so (say) i earned $200 in OT, simple math, $100 goes to taxes, so i "worked for free" those x number of hours, just to pay the various local/state/federal taxes.
and it is not just the taxes, but gasoline, oil (for heating) gas (natural gas for cooking, heating) and electricity have HIGH costs here as well.
personally since i live "up here", i am used to it. but i'd personally NEVER recommend someone moving here, for a job who's pay "sounds ok for the area", but in all reality, you WILL NEED all that OT just to come to a small, VERY SMALL comfortable living wage....
why short change yourself..???
for the beauty of the fall season and changing colors of the leaves?drvrtech77 Thanks this.
