    Yeah, even though my trainer was cool, the 30 days of training #### near killed me. I had a hard time being in the truck with another dude 24 hours a day.

    In the expedite business that's how it rolls,in most cases anyway.Sounds like OP is driving for a mega expedite company and I have an idea who,if so 90% of those fleet owners will not take a solo and expedite means ASAP loads that need to be deliver ASAP or on short amount of time.In team trucks they roll 24 hrs so what a solo can do in 2 days a team can do in 1 day.Teaming isn't for everyone but you can get used to it after a while.
