    This sounds a lot like one of those "Make thousands of dollars a week working from YOUR OWN HOME!" scam emails.

    In my experience, the good jobs that will pay great and treat you like a person (this is in relation to jobs in general, as I've yet to have any experience trucking) are the ones that do NOT have to go out of their way to convince you that they're a good place to work. I've they're using bulletin points, bold text, and over-frequent use of capitals, they're probably not a legit place to work.

    Unfortunately, these are usually the jobs you get from friend/family connections and/or after having years of experience (that means putting up with a couple of years of crap :/)

    That's what this is see...

    You drive your 11 hrs a day, then during your 10 hr break, you stuff envelopes from your home. Everyone knows your truck is your home...

    Gypsum Express is a good company but I think they can do a better good giving us a bigger piece of the pie. I've been working for them for a year. I can't break this 750-800 a week after taxes (1100 b4) barrier Matt my planner has me on. I don't break passed 10hrs and my left door is always closed. I work out of Danville, va. My miles only go up when I travel the Midwest. If u live out there I think u could clear a thousand a week after tax. We do I expect to make 1000 after tax because at my old union fondery job I made over a thousand after taxes and was home every day. If u won't somebody to stay out away from there family u have to make it worth there while
