which would you choose?

neither. long hours, running all night, having to sleep through the events.\

No glory in either.

I have always wondered what nascar,singers,etc pay drivers to haul for them..

With NASCAR you get somewhat of a break during the offseason. Your also doing a LOT of work when not driving. You become a gopher and/or designated cook. You will see very little of the race because your loading the truck up so that when the race is over, all the team has to do is put the car in the trailer and your headed home.

I worked a few WCW shows as a stagehand for them when they were still around. The driver does very little work unless he has a part in the show or is part of the crew during the show which seemed to be never for WCW drivers. You back into the dock, open the doors and then direct what comes off the truck and when it comes off to the local roadie's. Climb back into the truck and sleep until the show is over. Once over, you re-open the doors and direct what comes onto the truck and when as the local roadie's do all the heavy work. As far as hometime, WWE goes year round, so you will go year round. I hear McMahon is very good to his employees as far as trying to get them home if they ask.

They both have their goods and bads. Being a hauler driver for a NASCAR team is very lucrative and well recognized while drivers for WWE seem to get very little recognition.

If read USA Today, you've probably seen this article before:

My father had a job offer a few years back with a team that housed a NASCAR/Busch team. I know the team, but I wont say. I know it was not one of the Top 20 teams LOL. Anyways like said he would be a gopher, or pit person during the event, such as get tires ready, wash the grill, etc things that happen behind the walls, and here is the best part.

On the road 46 out of 52 weeks. He would not be home at all for 46 weeks, then be home in the off season for 6 weeks. Pay was better than many company drivers, but not such that countered being away for 46 straight weeks.

just wanted to let you all know that when i was on my way to see smackdown in indy back in september of 07 i saw dale earnhardts hauler going towards kansas city. my mom tried to get a picture of it but got my head instead. saw both jr. haulers and many others.

funny thing about it was that after we saw jimmie johnsons hauler my mom was like i dont want a picture of that, after it went by dale sr's hauler went by but she was in the process of putting the camera down and thats when she got my head :x :lol:

most of them drivers keep quiet on the cb but was able to talk with one of the dale jr. drivers

Everyone thinks those types of jobs are glamorous, but in reality they aren't. Like the Rev. said, no recognition. And what people seem to forget Nascar, like any sport, is entertainment. It means working on the weekends when everyone else is enjoying their weekend. Working every weekend, when your other friends are hanging out, gets old quickly.

How is that unlike 90% of other OTR burn-out jobs?
