    So 8-10 days a month? One reason I steered away form them is because they said for the bulk division that you only get to "prefer" 6 days a month and there is no guarantee that you get them. I even tried to call a different recruiter and was told the same thing. ####, if I would have known that.... I may have went to the CDL mill first. lol

    8 to 10 a month? I think you have too many weeks in your equation.

    So there is no preferred 6 days throughout the month? well you said 4-5 days/2 weeks out. So your equation is saying that you only get 4-5 days for being out 28 days than?

    Sorry, was thinking of the round about weeks of 5-7 days so going off of a two week estimate of being 10-14 days. Because we all know that some weeks can be short and some longer. That is the only reason I was factoring in two break periods.
