[quote:Bel-Darrion:MV80OTIwNzY3Xzg5OTIyMDc1XzkxNDZENjE=] I am an ex truck driver. Over the road drivers, long haul drivers are desperately needed right now. I read the other day that there is about an 85,000 driver deficit. My brother-in-law still drives. He tells me that companies are begging for drivers. I made around $50,000 my first year of driving. You can make more, just depends how much effort you want to put into it. You can earn your Class A CDL by paying out of pocket at a driving School or there are lots of companies that will hire you, train you, and put you in a truck as long as you agree to pay them back over a year or so. This is the route I took. Got my license and was turned loose in about six weeks. It is a different and difficult life. You are gone from your home and family a lot. You are always alone. Live in a truck, eat over priced truck stop food, have to learn to sleep any where and at any time. You wont get to shower every day and the hours are long and always random. But. It is a way to make good money, quickly, and without a lot of cash out lay. Just throwing this out there as an option. [/quote]
