    Here you go, But they do require experience. If you have enough this should be easy to get into.

    Wow. 2000 miles/week. The dot is gonna audit your logs for sure. You outlaw.

    Most drivers would quit a job where they only got 2000 mile/week. You oughta be home every weekend running those miles. Maybe JB likes the unmotivated, who really don't wanna work too hard. But hey, if it works for you. I would be bored outta my mind with that. I hope you get additional pay.

    JB Sends the non-runners packing unless the non runners are happy with low miles.

    the mileage is all nyc based. its the cs account. you also get stop pay for every stop and delay pay after the 2nd hour if you have any. some accounts like newburgh u get $50 for starting your day since the runs are shorter. you can easily make 2 loads a day even if your a lazy driver. I see that lone ranger is constantly bashing jb hunt based on an experience from 19 years ago so my question to you is who do you currently work for and what do you make yearly?

    the chester account is real busy. they are still offering a 5,000 sign on bonus. runs there vary between long island nj and ct. they run prostar and Cascadia daycabs. miles vary. typically 2 stops per load. they haul perishables to walbaums and stop and shop. I run out of newburgh.
