    When looking at local jobs (under 21) don't forget septic companies. Yes the job smells (sorry, had to) but it does pay around $18-$20 an hour. And even in a bad economy, those tanks gotta be pumped.......:biggrin_25525:

    are you sure? It says in the FMSCR book (Little Green Book) 18 years old to drive Intrastate and 21 to drive Interstate.

    The company I drive for isn't big (Watkins Shepard) we only have like 750ish trucks. Thats not small but compared to Swifts 16,000+ trucks it is.
