Are there any part time driving gigs out there? I was just curious about that. Thanks guys.

some companys advertise 7 days on and 7 days off. otr

 

There are bucket fulls of them. Nearly any OTR company and many local regional companies have these positions. They are called Casual. They dont advertise them or anything , just start asking. You will b surprised how many places need casual drivers.

 

check your local paper or www.careerbuilder.com

Lately Roadway has been a part-time job. Work 2 weeks get layed off. Work 2 more and get layed off.

 

Yeah, the more part time jobs, the less bennies they have to pay... :roll:

 

You will still average 40+ hours in a week, and make low pay, with no benefits.
But I agree...lots of companies.

 

We have quite a few part time jobs over here at JB. They tend to be mostly yard jockey jobs. No benefits but tend to pay ok.
Here is the problem with part time jobs. Not many companies are going to count that as driving experience. You could do it for a few years and then decide that you want to go back full time and then be unhireable because of lack of experience. The strange thing is that even if I put a driver in a part time job over here and many years later he decides he wants to stay at JB but now do fulltime OTR....he most likely couldnt transfer because of lack of experience.

 

so wait explain, if someone drives 7 days on 7 days off, the driver will still get about 50,000 miles doing otr, and youre saying it will not count towards experience at all?
