Dude I asked in Indy makes $800 a week off two days home every night.
All he does is shuttle trailers no unloading on usual route. General guys make more but that's decent money for where its at. Indy is cheap living.

Where you been, man? All okay? Just dawned on me when I got an alert to a "watched thread.." haven't seen you in awhile.
Hope all is well; miss your input and wisdom.
Thirty days to the day. Dang.

Howdy all !! Just wanted to give all of you my situation and ask if there is nothing better out there for me as far as $$$. Currently I work for Quickway out of Texas. Local runs out of our terminal delivering frozen and refrigerated to a grocery chain. I usually put in between 40-52 hours a week six days (off 1 day). We have to unload at customer electric pallet jack. frozen runs are 20 stops about 10-12 hours and refrigerated is between 4-6 stops 3-7 hours. So for me two 9 hour days and 4 (avg) 5 hour day. Check is usally $800-$875 a week before taxes and deductions. Couple weeks a year paid vacation, 2 personel days, Esop, 401k (%6 match)medical etc. From what I see it looks like this is a decent deal compared to some of the other jobs I have looked at. I mean I've called a couple companys that offered a couple days out then back home but the pay seemed to be low. I was looking to get out of the local driving and do a little regional or dedicated but at $.38 to $.40 per mile I just don't see the money. I really would appreciate some input from you truckers out there who are doing dedicated or regional. Maybe I am not looking at the right jobs or is this it. Thanks to all in advance

Where does the 3 days off factor in? You don't make 900 that week? So your w2 is 46k+ ÷52= 900 give or take. Still 46k isn't that good today. Just sayin.
