    I was trying to get a grasp of what I should do while I’m stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas. I work from 0630-1700, I planned on doing Amazon Relay or stack shorter hauls in a 26ft box truck with a lift gate ( max 400 miles ) during the week and make it back home by midnight and do that 2-4 days a week on weekdays.. I was told that docks aren’t usually open on weekends but if they are I planned on taking an anchor load and a few partials with my partner driver to the Midwest/east on Friday, ( we get released at 3pm ) then float around the Midwest/east on Saturday due to their high RPMs and make our way back on Sunday.. is this realistic and could I actually profit or would I just be driving for gas money!? We’d also be using an aged authority and paying 20% of each load for 6 months until my authority is aged..

    Just remember, all the hours you worked at another job, apply to your clock whether you log or not.
