Yeah trucking, with the electric monitor , can't get enough hrs , no places to park cops ,weigh stations ,shitty recievers, crappy food, governed trucks that won't go 55 over an anthill,pesky 4 wheelers that won't yield on entry to interstate. You to can have all this for 800 lousy bucks a week on average. I left when they went to the cdl, accidents went up 52% yeah trucking
Brother in law tells much the same story. He left trucking too.
I'm making $90,000/yr company driver, OTR. Yeah the ELD sucks but I still do just fine with it. That $800 average pay is only that low because of the mega carriers skewing the shit out of it.
You quit when they brought in the CDL? Man, you gotta be older than me. Governed at 55 MPH? Confirmation.
So, you drove for Swift? JB Hunt? Schneider?
