    He is a buffoon to say the least.

    However, he's about 25% of the way to owning his truck. A nice truck.

    And he's taken home more in the last two weeks than you will in the next 3 months.

    So there's those things.

    And he started with $0.00 And got in for $0.00

    Just a clean year at Western Express and a set of balls.

    And he works quite hard. No one is handing him anything.

    See if you can catch him.

    Sounds like Otter knows what he wants and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to be successful, commendable!

    I'm speechless by this. The irony: you call someone uneducated when you've got a lot of learning to do.

    We’d get up early after a good night’s sleep and get on the road with our travel trailer for the six hour drive up to Huntsville. Despite the coffee, after a few hours, my eyelids would start getting heavy. I’d have to start slapping my face until we stopped and got gas and an energy drink.

    I couldn’t imagine driving 11 hrs/day, every day, and overnight. That’s why I didn’t go with Stevens Transport. That was my understanding of the reefer lifestyle.

    With regional flatbed and Melton no longer options, I did talk to the Western Express recruiter. He told me .32 CPM and 2700-3000 miles.

    In the end, I just didn’t want to become a trucker badly enough, and you really have to want it to go with W.E.

    My suggestion is to go get on the dock at a LTL company.

    You must be getting old; in your younger days you could do "flights ops to flight ops" hours.
