    If you don't want a trucking OTR job why are you wasting the company's time? You do know that once your there you have to pay for the flight and hotel if you don't stay for 6 months to a year

    Not all I worked for one and they did not do that when I left them before 6 months have to pay for anything and in fact they paid for me to get home.

    $41860 to be out 14 hours a day 3-4 weeks at a a time? I can make $13 an hour flipping burgers and be home after 8 hours. I also don't have to pay for meals out or any other of the myriad expenses you run into OTR.

    frankly, I'd rather flip burgers. Yes, it's less money, but you're also home every day after 8 hours and get overtime for over 40.

    To work OTR, the sacrifices you have to make and the dedication it takes to do that job well, don't even TALK to me for less than $55k.

    Anyone willing to work 14 hours a day, 7 days a week, 3.5 weeks a month for anything LESS than that is either an idiot or has problems with their background.

    I have a reputation as a hard worker. But #### if I'm gonna be working that hard for chump change. I'd rather work a lot less and MAKE less than be a slave to a company making bank off my hard work for slave wages. And yes, 41k for OTR is slave wages.

    That's an old pay scale.

    You're probably right China, as you usually are. I was using the numbers quoted, which are frankly, gARBAGE. I could work for SWIFT and do as well.

    I saw that several months ago. From what I read the owners son changed the pay structure trying to increase profits and it backfired big time. I guess he forgot humans work for him and have families to support.
