Not sure why I thought of this, but I have a question, and would be interested in knowing...
How often does everyone get home?
and..
Do you prefer to stay out a long time?
I'm usually home every weekend, this isn't one of them. I'll be in El Paso. (Might have to buy some new boots! ) I don't like being out long, after about 10 days my road rage and my knee start acting up.
id shout you new boots haha
id shout you new boots lol
I'm generally out 6-8 weeks. I occassionally get through home for a 34.. and sometimes even for a night. Then, after that long out I tend to only take 4-5 days off as I get antsy around the house. Xmas time though I generally take the whole week off with the weekend on each end. I don't like it but thats at the request of my girlfriend. I guess I can accomodate that one request since the rest of the year she lets me run how I wish. lol.
I'm at home every Friday and usually leave out Sunday evening, sometimes Monday morning, depending on my load.
i'm home at least 2 days a week. out from sun-thurs/friday.
Well I used to stay out about 3-4 weeks then home for about 3-4days that seemed to be the most profitable and still get decent home time. Now I'm home every day, but seem to put in more hours than I did doing the OTR thing!
I get 34-36 hours at home each week. I get home Saturday night (maybe before midnight, if I'm lucky), and leave around noon or a hair later on Mondays.
I heard a couple of guys talking the other night and one of them said that he'd been out for like 6 weeks and he was from somewhere in South Carolina. I thought, dang..that's a long time from being home.
It made me wonder about everyone here...
A lot of people either don't have family at home or they do have family, but don't want to see them.
