    I’m from Milwaukee Wisconsin. I have a very good career with a current company, not rich I’m not gonna thump my chest and make up fake numbers but I do average after taxes on a “Meh week” $900 to a run all your hours week $1,200 but I also just closed on my very first house in Gatlinburg Tennessee (7-20) final moving date for September, they are a good company and want to keep me. I know it’s not uncommon for a driver to live a ways away especially if they have a good income but I can at least entertain my options knowing USX is a few hours away. I already know the recruiters games . Their website is a $5,000 sign on bonus (I already know how these work) and 70,000k a year which I already know is BS so what’s the real story from experience drivers, not fresh meat wet behind the ears drivers . I know what I need to make and what I’m willing to accept , I’ve already rubbed some other recruiters the wrong way becuse I’ve call them out. Of course I’m just coming with a negative attitude, No. I come with a clear mind and not stary eyes . Again I don’t NEED them. Just exploring my options of my new home

    I’ve heard stories of trucks trying to go through the Gap 441 between Gatlinburg & Cherokee NC . We get a couple water head drivers but they get shown the door . Seams the bigger companies reward you for ignorance
