And a new job to boot. Starting off my 37th season in the game of Life, I have taken on a new job. I am now a real live, rootin'-tootin', breaker one nine squawkin, trucker. I am now working for a trucking company that will have me delivering around the Southeast. My pay? Jumped from about $800/week(bring home) to just shy of $1200/week. I'm excited about this. Plus, no more working in bad weather and shit like that. Later, QD.

Damn. Sounds like a nice rig. If it's one of those new Volvo's, they're comfortable as hell.

Good luck on the road.

Bingo. They use only 93 and up Volvos and Freightliners. Later, QD.

Plush riding for the QD!!

I'm not a big fan of Freightliners though. The one we have as a rollback has been giving us problem ever since we bought it. It's only got 217,xxx miles.

quickdodge®
04-27-2007, 12:18 PM
Well damn. Lolol. Well, on the plus side, breakdowns are extra on the paycheck, lolol. Breakdowns cause delays causing detention and those things add up to time. Time = money. Later, QD.

04-27-2007, 12:20 PM
Yep yep.

I know a little of the trucking industry, and I drive rollbacks for my car lot.

Anyway, be safe!

putting differences aside. congrats man. thats pretty good money. i was making 900(bring home) a week at PFG miltons after countless years of busting ass. worst job ever, since i had to unload the truck myself most of the time plus having 15 stops a day totally blows. 4am till whenever i get done with my last stop (usually around 4pm) is not worth 800 dollars a day. hope this job works out for you. iam done with trucking.

Preciate it. I've been doing the distributor thing for 8 years with Budweiser so I know all the stops and unloading shit. I was gonna call PFG but decided to go with Swift when they called me for the job. No unloading. Unless I want to make extra money. Later, QD.

good thing you didnt call miltons. "what, you want me to bend over and take it up the ass." lol. they would screw you over big time. my friend quit with me, they cut his pay at the time and changed his route. a bunch of BS. they tried to add stops to my route when i was allready hitting my max hour time anyways. i wanted to get back into trucking and had a job interview with ij food food distributor but it didnt work out and they gave it to someone else. only other job i could get is with jb hunt but iam not ok with driving cross-country. i have a fiance and kid to take care off. now iam just working a bunch of shit jobs until something finally works out

Way to go! I hope everything works out well for ya. I would definitely do something like that if I didn't have a wife and kid. I loved being out on the road selling and making good money. Then, my recent accident stopped all that.

I have a wife and two children, but I have to do something quick. This is just to hold me for a few months until I get on a dedicated route. Later, QD.

Fuck Volvos and their POS engines that are a bitch to work on. Fuck Mack too, both of them are a motherfucker to work on. I'll take a Freightliner with a Detriot Diesel anyday.
