I imagine I could get you one, but I don't imagine it would do you any good, Repete!! I imagine the reason it pays so well is because I handle HazMat ping-pong balls and secret classified government freight. I imagine that I got this job because of my Top Secret Security Clearance that I got back when I was a Navy SEAL while serving in the US Army in Vietnam.

Don't ask, Jackrabbit379... I'm severely dyslexic, and with my 007 Intelligence Classification, if I told you, then I'd have to KILL myself!! :blazin:

Uhm....this is the trucking industry. It's not a 9 to 5 job where when you clock out, you go home to the wife and kids afterwards. You eat, sleep, and live in your truck and shower in truck stops and company terminals. Personally, I generally work as many hours as I'm lawfully allowed to work and drive as many miles as I legally can during that time allotted.
I personally don't care how many miles I drive per week, since I don't get paid by that mileage scam. I care more about hours per week, usually between 40-60.

That is an office job!
There are very few 40 hr work weeks in trucking, even if you drive local, which I do. I average 50-55 hrs a week, Monday thru Friday, about 1500 miles, pulling vans and flats. I love being home every night, OTR gets old after awhile.
