First full year at Superior Carriers is complete...
And what a helluva enjoyable ride it has been! As I've stated before, every system/O.T.R. driver here has the capabiility and potential to make this kind of money or more depending on how hard they choose to work, as we are all paid the same regardless of experience. And the hometime isn't shabby either!
Now to hopefully explain anything anyone questions. The hours I have listed is all paid time I have gotten concerning work. This includes all time spent during initial road training, loading/unloading, dropping/hooking empty tanks, layover, breakdown, local work, getting fittings and/or my truck's pump washed out, and holiday pay. As I've stated before, Superior pays us for everything we do short of fueling the truck and our daily vehicle inspections. I'm looking forward to continue driving here for many years. Y'all take care and have fun!
