Err that aannndd we have company rules... If we get pulled into a weigh station and have a passenger on our truck without a permit... We can lose our jobs on the spot -_-

Oh Geeze!! Tattle tail!! Lol I thought the saying went "what happens in the truck stays on the truck" not splattered on the Internet!! XD

It was fun though >.> almost caused a few accidents though cuz drivers can't seem to focus on the road >.>

If I may put in two cents? Please someone update the in truck computer systems (i.e. Qualcomm and Peoplenet). They are so faulty at times and lead us to the weirdest places even when we are supposed to have the correct coordinates it sends us 50 miles out into the wrong side of town and says we are supposed to be five miles north going southbound in the field to our left! There's more sense in a 5 year old reading a map for the first time I swear!! If it's possible give the GPS voice to Cortana as well lol

Trust me... This guy is crazy enough to drive in conditions he's not supposed too at times >.> I should know.

It can be stressful yes. But it depends on how well you like being alone, or within a constant 5 feet of a single other person. It's not like having the space of a house. You are constantly in a 5 foot radius of another person if you have a passenger or are training.

The most stressful part in my experience was learning to stay slow. That being slow is not a bad thing at all. It keeps you safe and it keeps you from hitting things (as often in some cases... People are still cocky and stupid) as well as the backing. Backing took me a while to get down and still to this day I will make all the other drivers in line mad because I will CONSTANTLY use my G.O.A.L. (Get Out And Look) and stop the truck to get out and see how much space I have while blocking them. Because I want to be safe and not have to do a pile of paperwork or lose my license because I hit something. It's the same with driving a car though... Be safe.. How often do you like to sing your car because you paid minimal attention and hit something?

I'm working for a company now making .35 cents per mile. Take out about 3 cents for taxes. If I run correctly (which is hardly ever the case considering traffic and things you can't control) I can run nearly 3k miles a week. But I normally get about 2400 because 4 wheelers like to block traffic thinking they are more important and need to be in front of the line like little kindergarten kids. So, .32 X 60 (I go 64 on a good day so I take it down a few miles to be on the safe side) = 19.20 dollars in an hour. I can drive 11 hours in a day but usually go for 9 1/2 to 10. 19.20 X 10 = 192 a day 192 X 5 = 960

But... It varies on mileage and extras. I only work 5 days a week as a regional run and I'm home basically 2 days every week (varies by schedule) Now... .32 x 2400 = 768 .32x 3000 = 960.... 600 miles makes all the difference in this game.

Lead us not into temptation... We can find our own way there and know the best routes too!!!
