    If y’all had a clue about open deck rates..... I’ve made your rate as a company driver pulling OD often and legal sparingly.I don’t think at that rate one can invest in new equipment and be profitable at the same time. I might be mistaken.

    @Anthony Ruther
    Is it mandatory for a solo driver in the LTL or the TLS division to run at nights?
    I was speaking with a recruiter in their website chat and the girl that answered my question said that OTR solo drivers runs at nights. I just would like to confirm with you if this is true or not.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah for the most part. Some dedicated's are different, but the freight is sorted during the day and runs at night - much like Fedex ground.

    I personally, enjoy it. Less traffic and headache.
