Moving to non-driving job in a company. Is it possible?

[rodcannon]

Let's say one has been driving for a few years and is getting tired of it.

What would his options be for moving into a non-driving job with same company?

Could he do it without sacrificing significant income?

Are some companies better for this than others?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Next logical step....

Dispatcher

You might find a job as a dispatcher, but those with whom I have spoken tend to make less money than the OTR drivers. Something in safety might also be an option. Recruiting is also an option.

I know a guy who drove OTR as a leased on O/O for Melton for a while (brought his own truck, not a lease purchase guy) and has since moved to Safety/Recruiting.

Took a pay cut somewhat but he enjoys it a lot. I think he drove for them for 5 years or so and was a good performer so it's possible.
