    Road life is no life for me. I'll stick to 8.5 hours a day. If I could figure out how to work 6 I'd do it

    See why you don't wanna work? You need 650 miles a day and 6 days occasionally on weekends. All you wanna do is eat fruit snacks all day and chase dogs in the front yard man.

    650 miles..... F that. Too hard of running. I let my wife pickup my slack. I'm not chasing no dogs neither. Too much work. I'll eat the snacks though.

    Bruh you're being a steering wheel holder. You need a manual truck and 600 miles a night. You also need to work the weekend too sometimes.

    Weekends? Absolutely not. They don't have any manual trucks unfortunately at my terminal. Too much work anyway. I am for sure a steering wheel holder, how else do you drive? It's a hard life. 8.5 hours a night is a struggle.

    I forgot you were used to sleeping 4 hours in the middle of a tub while being paid for it. You're living the good life brother lol.

    Hell, I turned a peddle run into a layover once. :D

    That’s what happens when high winds close off all the bridges.

    Go for it!! Not I, my 450 mile meet and greet (7 hour drive) is all I need. Quality of life is more important. Throw in an occasional extra run when feeling it.
     
    Cheezy_smile and jtaran06 Thank this.
