Depressing thought there. That's exactly what my training pay was 10 years ago. My (base) phone bill is double, my electric is about 30% higher, cable is 50% higher, gas for my fourwheeler is 150% higher, and even starting pay at Whacky World is up by $2 an hour compared with when I was there.Originally Posted by fatman
I'm willing to bet that you can find a company that will pay you 'training pay' (usually $350-$450/week) while you shake the rust off.
Yet training pay for a truck driver remains the same as it was 10 years ago. That's the worst part of this biz. The longer you work, the more feasible it becomes to earn the same money working double shifts at Burger King.
