I just had some general questions for those here on the board.....
1. What drew you all to trucking?
2. How do I go about finding a good company to go with? I'd prefer to stay local here and some OTR. I live in West Virginia if you couldn't tell by the screename.
3. What's a realistic first year income?
4. What do you all do with your downtime while out on the road? Just incase you have a long layover or a restart.
5. How safe is trucking? Aside from accidents, I have a fear of getting kniffed at a truck stop :lol:
6. I'm currently in college and should finish my degree here in a few years. I've worked at my current job for almost 7 years now in a cubical. Am I crazy for being drawn to trucking?
Any info/feedback I could get would be very much appreciated. I enjoy reading everyone's insight into the industry.
