    Yes, I like what I do and I like Schneider, just not the sitting! And the money isn't bad to be honest. I posted up my first years total gross in another thread. It wasn't going to drop any panties but it was the most I've made.

    Well to update miles. I will be sitting at 2k when I del tomorrow. I will then load tomorrow afternoon in Houston, and deliver Monday morning just outside of San Diego, California. All said, I should have around 3,500 miles for the week ending Monday in LA. I will be ready for days off at the end of the month.

    I'd say I was jealous but...I've been to Southgate! took me a few hours to finally get a spot to drop my trailer there one time.

    I do like running up I-5, couple of nice spots to park that have good eating establishments. Like Pea Soup Andersons or the In n Out.

    Maybe you'll get the run from San Jose to Newbern NC or relay that to Houston...

    Southgate can be brutal. There is additional parking behind the fence if you didn't know. Not much but it's there.

    I will just bobtail to the OC after I drop the trailer.

    Yeah but finding a spot for the trailer can be tough, just don't show up late and you should be okay.
