    I can understand not wanting to sit, but doing otr you will be doing some sitting. I have been at Walmart for five hours getting unloaded. I have did that much time getting loaded. Sometimes you can sit a day getting a load. You can show up Saturarday to unload or load. Then find out they are closed until Monday. It happens so be prepared.
     
    LuDiesel and Dh46 Thank this.

    Yep that's what I keep seeing from people a lot makes for a very boring day it seems that's why I think APu and inverters would be nice to have for that reason I mean what do u guys do during ur down time to keep from going insane just curious def the ones that don't have inverters and all that good stuff only playing on ur phones and watching porn goes so far haha

    Yes. I was in a bad accident in 4/12. They gave me a second chance but only as a lease.
