My Experience as a Line Haul Driver

hmm no, i sat on my butt until i left the terminal i didnt work, no had i worked the dock like some idiots did (who then had to lose their runs) you would be right, but i never started working.

i wish i had a YRC paycheck but other then that no... in my first week i worked Three 12 hour shifts, and two 14 hour shifts, and only worked the dock 3 of 5 days and each time for less then 2 hours. and mon and tuesday i went home before the sun went down. And tonight i got out at 1015pm to enjoy my weekend.


At YRC it would take me 20 years to have a week like that, plus i like to go 70 in a 70 not 62 (that would drive me crazy...not even kidding)

nope. Now IF i wanted to work the dock they would have paid for that, OR IF i wanted to go on duty and waste my hours they would have paid me to sit there. BUT i made alot more money doing that run so i just hung out with some other drivers and made my money.
