Message:: [QUOTE="rbrtwbstr, post: 11601443, member: 89920"]Eh. I know they're out there. But based on the stories I hear about the reefer business, 80k isn't enough. There's a company less than a mile up the road from my house, I know the owner for 30 years or so. Great guy, and his drivers are well compensated.  They run reefer regionally.  I talk to the one driver daily on the phone.  He's a friend of mine. Seems like he's constantly waiting at some warehouse to unload. It's like he spends five or six hours driving to wherever, then sits for five or six hours. Even though he's paid for sitting, I say screw that.  The owner of that company has been persistent in trying to hire me.  I make as much as he offered at my current job. And I'm home every night and sleep next to my wife. I'm on track to hit $72k this year. So for me to consider going OTR pulling anything, $85-90k is just where I'll start to listen to any offers. Anything less and I won't even consider[/QUOTE]
