Default Arghhh - so close, but yet so far

Celadon pays vacation every 30,000 miles dispatched. I just got my 4th weeks vacation since I started here on 3/31/10. If you get 126,000 miles in that 1 year, you get a 5th weeks vacation for the year.

Right now I'm at 122,419 miles. The load delivers on the 26th. Be rough to get 3,800 miles in the remaining time.

4 weeks vacation in 1 year seems good. Is that a 5 or 7 day vacation and what rate are they paying for that week? Not driving yet, couple more years to go till that time, but how often are you home?

7 days off. Pay is $300/week if you don't have HazMat, $600/week with HazMat. I'm out 2-3 weeks at a time, with 2-3 days off when I'm home.
