Yet you're still doing it. Trucking isn't the only job that sucks, maybe you could look at driving a dump truck or something along those lines.
They all suck!

Wage world sucks arse, especially on the lower end, when you drive a truck you get exposed to multitude of degrading ways one can work his life off and it just makes you wanna cry.

Wait a second. Shaffer sent me a text saying that I can avg 80k a year working for them. So how can they suck? Oh thats right, I got to work the equivalent of 2 full time jobs & sleep in a box while hardly having any life outside of driving a truck delivering to a-hole grocery whses that treat you like pond scum.
Whats not to like ?Trucker61016, TheyCallMeDave, mjd4277 and 1 other person Thank this. -
I don't understand these people working for one bottom feeder after another, then whining about how screwed the job is. What would they expect.
snowlauncher, 6wheeler, Veteran driver and 3 others Thank this. -
Schneider had ads for West Texas 65k/year.bigblue19 Thanks this. -
72k a year would be $1,565 per week worked, before taxes. At $0.40 a mile, that's 3,913 paid practical miles. Adding 17% mover's guide rip-off, that's 4,578 hub miles.
Even running 52 weeks a year, you'd have to average 4,000-4,500 miles a week to make that kind of money. In a fleet truck? I call bullsh-t. Even at 60 mph average (possible but not easily achieved), that's 67.5 hours driven. 2.5 hours a week for fueling and PTI. Not happening in a fleet truck.

Coffey, Trucker61016 and mjd4277 Thank this. -
I was just making a joke in response to the other guys joke about Schaeffer.
I saw the Crete ad on CL the other day.Call_Me_The_Breeze Thanks this. -
Shaffer Trucking drivers (?) get the Crete 3-Peat! Crete Carrier & Shaffer raise pay 3 times in 2018! Next raise Sept. 1 Top 25% of National OTR drivers will avg up to $80k per year.
Marten says & I qoute,
Want more home time & more pay? 100% home weekly Options+ Avg 62 CPM!
If these Refer outfits are so high paying & have great benefits & hometime, why do they have to try & recruit a driver 1500 miles away to come work for them? They should be turning down people lined up outside the terminals.snowlauncher and 51.50 Thank this. -
What they don't say is that raise #1 should have come about 15 years ago, raise #2 should have come about 10 years ago, and raise #3 should have come about 5 years ago. I trained at CRST in 2013 for $0.25 / mile. Now they're hiring at $0.39 / mi, or so I was told.
