Just wanted to celebrate a little bit. 28/hr, normal 8-5 schedule, doing 2-3 local runs a day. Super chill, great schedule, pumped to be off the road and at home. The crazy part is ill make the same i did OTR but have a normal life now.
The good local gigs are out there, yet that experience and then dip. Stay safe out there my friends!

Yeah I'm local working from 5am to around 2pm monday-friday. It's nice having a life outside of the truck.

I have the same schedule. Some days less, some days more but 40 to 45 hours a week. Bumping docks 2 or 3 a day.

I love my 6 to 5 at 28 an hr. I make 2 pickups then run them to a Honda plant cross dock. Easy money

Congrats man. I wish I could find something like it but I have my dog with me all day every day. Enjoy it!

Gz man, I got a local gig like 0200 to 1200 or so most days, unless we got no runs then it's a fuck off at the yard day 7 to 4. Doesn't pay shit but I love 45 hrs a week for a change
