    Most likely, if your OTR, you'll grab a load and head North until it's time to come home. If you're regional, you'll run the SE and get home on weekends

    You basically make your own schedule. If you want to stay out for 6 months and then go home they are not going to stop you. All they "require" is 7 days out if i remember right. You want to go home every 7 days they will route you that way. but dont expect the miles to be there much unless you live in a major freight lane.

    For every 7 out i think you get 1.5 home. if you so choose. I know i ran about 21 out and 3 at home.
    7 / 1.5
    14 /3
    21 / 4.5

    What you have to know is if you go home after 7 they will kill you on the miles. They wont put a lot of effort in you if you don't put a lot of effort back. That's trucking.

    Oh yeah, definitely not planning that kind of schedule. I know if they have to route me home every week it's going to kill my miles.

    14/3 or 21/4 should work alright for me.

    I do 28 out, 4.5 home. I have no life and it's a nice bit of bank.

    Millis uses a Triangular Template. Wisconsin -- New York -- Georgia. The bulk of their work is within that triangle.

    That being said, they now do a lot of work in Texas. If you don't live in that triangle or in Texas, and you submit an app., you better follow it up with a phone call. The computer is programmed to dismiss any app. if submitted from most states.

    You'll be sitting at home waiting for a call that will never be made. You'd think Millis would be kind enough to mention that on their site ... but they aren't.

    I live in GA and I still had to call. The triangle is pretty much dead accurate.
