Tell us were you work for good money? I would like to apply for your job. I would consider to work for less just to get in.

BTW - I understand if I were in the fast lane, but being in the slow lane or 1 away from the slow land so I can move on down the road without having to apply my brakes every time theres an on ramp, but why do these morons get up behind me and tailgate when theres a clear lane directly to my lfet with no oncoming vehicles? I won't even bit*h about the "all truck use left lane" on the 880 SB just past 5th street. I am going slow and I realize if you pass youre asking for a ticket.
also BTW it's not all OTR, its also the local freight haulers comming out of the the Oakland docks. And not all OTR or freight haulers are offensive and dangerous. I realize that the Arco fuel haulers love to kick a*s with their 8k gallons on 87 octane in the back.

Yeah. Well, I remember when you said that you werent happy there. Atleast, you did get some experience, and they also helped you get your CDL. Glad that you are doing good, running locally.

6th grade math lesson? (55mph * 11 hours = 605 miles) * 33cpm = $199.65 (70mph * 11 hours = 770 miles) * 33cpm = $254.10 A mile is still 5280 feet, no matter how fast you go. I think you need to revisit a remedial math program. Then again, anyone who speeds is generally stupid anyway.
