    Niles Michigan has gas hauling 30 an hour plus OT. That's 100 k + a year.

    No gas hauling 4 me.

    Herc Rentals and Sunbelt both start at close to $33 around here if you dont mind open deck work. Of course they are hiring in Indy and Lafayette but not here...

    Assuming you live closer to South Bend, R&L has a yard in New Carlisle is that one of the places you worked at?

    That big concrete company is hiring in New Carlisle but I cannot remember their name... They have green and white trucks. Believe top scale is near $40 though...

    Haven't been by that Amazon data center on 20 in a couple months, delivered numerous loads there though... Is it close to being finished?

    I worked at Airgas. The pay was piece work. So it was 31.50 to 33 an hour. No OT. The sheet rock job was 27 an hour ot after 40. I was clearing 1500 to 1650 a week. Better pay than air gas. Both said 10 to 12 hours a day. Mostly 12 to 15 hour a day plus commute.
