Looking for Orlando teammate for Barr-Nunn

So, unfortunately, any company I am gonna be working for reqs 6mo-1y experience at the moment.

As for solo, its pretty much the same everywhere as a company driver. You're basically not going to come home with more than $1500 per week, and thats if your week is decent. Edit: Forgot to add, this is if you want any decent hometime. Otherwise, go with a company giving a guarenteed minimum of $1500+ and you'll be okay. Also work on starting an LLC if you don't have one already, so you can do w-2 or 1099 gigs.
With your exp, I wouldn't expect more than $1,000
You'll find companies starting to bump the wage at 3mo exp.

Anyone offering you high pay is going to expect you to run Illegally. Avoid at all costs.

Exceptions would be if you meet any Owner-Operators that are interested in you driving their truck - chances are slim, as their cost to insure you with low experience will be sky high.

If you plan on staying in the business, start sifting through your options at the 6mo mark, but start researching right now.

Note; when you finally hit 6mo, it'll be a very dead time of year.(January 2024) Start talking to recruiters at about 5 months exp.

Once you hit 1y, assuming you've not gotten any tickets or accidents, or been terminated from employment for any reason(layoff is ok, but they'll count the time you're laid off as you not having driven for that month, for example) your options open wide open.

Don't bother trying to apply to companies that say they want 2-3y experience. You're basically as capable as 2-3y drivers at that point - with consistency as a variable. It's just an insurance issue, so they wont hire you no matter how great you look on paper or in person.

Hope this helps.

 

Most of the newer trucks have a button inside that will periodically trigger different sets of lights every few seconds so that you can check them all.
