Message:: [QUOTE="Hegemeister, post: 2692764, member: 89539"]Worked line haul for about 1 month after getting 5 months on road. I'm not saying YOU won't like it, but it definately not for everyone. In my situation, I had to hang around the house in the early evening and wait for a phone call before I leave for work. Usually around 7pm. Get to the terminal and get assignment, hook up doubles and drive about 2 1/2 hrs., unhook and work the dock with a forklift for about 6 hours (high speed), hook up and drive doubles back. Get home about 8am and TRY to get sleep. My biggest problem is I can't sleep well during the day. Then start all over. Pay was good. About $1200 / wk. But it definately takes a certain kind of person. Maybe for a young guy that likes long hours at night, it would be a good fit. Went back to OTR and it felt like I was on vacation.[/QUOTE]
