    Their website says 58k-68k working 4 days a week. How much these guys really making? Could I work 5 or 6 days? What are the hours like? Assigned trucks? Thanks

    I don't see how that's possible they aren't oil field they can throw numbers out all day though don't make it so even if everyone's paycheck little different as stated previously no oil field pay. those people will pay good money for hard workers that's why they will hire felons without a care because they know they need a job mostly because of the box they have to check they are desperate and will do anything get ahead.
    the oil field is good money but it ain't for the weak you must be driven good chance you will lose a limb or finger from a former roughneck point of view

    It’s definitely possible. JB dedicated accounts are legit. You should end up making around what they advertise. Depends how hard you want to work. What account is it?

    Also, if you call a recruiter and give them the job code from the ad they should be able to answer all the questions in your post.

    Chicago jobs need to pay that much to attract drivers at all. After all, UPS is on a big hiring spree there. They have become a competitor to everyone in the area.

    That said, I would definitely plan on working 12 to 14 hours for those four days a week.

    Thank you. It was intermodal account.


    I spoke with the recruiter and he was saying different things from what their drivers are saying.

    I spoke with 2 JB Hunt intermodal drivers and they are telling me that they work 4 days a week for 10 hours but could work 5-6 days (run out their clock). I need some clarification.

    I would probably try UPS but don’t wanna start part time or as casual. I have decent job already but I’m trying to see if I could possibly gross at least $1800 a week at JB Hunt.

    UPS is hiring full-time off the streets, but mostly for teams.

    Yes, I saw that. That ad has been up for months on indeed. I asked around and no one wants to do teams. My brother rather do UBER than teams again. Lol. Thanks
