$18 per hour is $36,000 full time based on 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year. With a nation wide push to make minimum wage $15 and hour, plus a national debt of over 20 Trillion, you can expect massive inflation. If you have a CDL A license working a CDL B job is not the most efficient use of your talents. You need to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible and invest in real estate or some other hard asset.
But then again Iran or North Korea could blow us all up and it won't matter. Have a nice day.xlsdraw, Mudguppy, bottomdumpin and 2 others Thank this. -
40 hours minimum? 18 per hour? Here in Arkansas you be a king. Most they pay is 12 or so.
I have not been up there in your way in a long time, but I think that would work out well for you. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.
Don't get hung up discriminating against class B trucks or class A trucks. As far as Im concerned anything that is commercial, even a car or a pickup truck is work. I have had employers try to use the excuse that class A is over qualified only to avoid the discrimation suits I would bring against them.BostonTanker Thanks this. -
3rd most expensive city in the continental usa to live.
Boston Globe wrote an article about month ago. Due to college kids from the sand box, durkadurkastan , and China, rents have doubled the last 5 years.
I really wanted to save oUT here for a few years, but it doesn't look like that idea is panning out quite well. -
I guess the real question is.. I have 1 yr now relatively clean.
Should I stick it out another year and get to 2 years... or take my ball and go home. Lol. -
You are talking about another year at Weiner, arent you?
GTFO already. Youre developing Stockholm Syndrome.Mudguppy and street beater Thank this. -
BostonTanker Thanks this.

They would hire another driver before paying that much
OT every week.
He'll squeeze a couple hours a week OT every now and then.
You can't support a family in Boston with this job, somebody
else has to work.BostonTanker Thanks this. -
Health insurance is quickly becoming about 60% of the reason you even take a job. I pay nearly $10,000 a year for, where I'm from that is a house payment on a really nice home.
BostonTanker and brian991219 Thank this. -
Week to week.
It's my expierence and I'm sure many others on this forum,
Ever time I tried that local 18 to 20 dollar an hour job that's home every night,I've worked harder and longer hours for 3 to 4 hundred dollars less per week that I made on the road.BostonTanker, xlsdraw and Md420 Thank this.
