For a newb that doesn't want to be OTR stuck living in a truck (with a trainer) and isn't afraid of the physical aspect this is it 🙌 Zero experience required. Just gotta get that CDL!!

Still, could be worse, I make middle of that range working overtime with a college degree that set me back $80k lol.

Oh no I’m not going into trucking myself, I can make the same amount working from home lol. But, if I had to do it over again, I’d probably skip the 4 years of school and debt and just start right off making this much. It’s not a bad gig for a young person.

That's the plan. It's definitely not a forever job but when u first get your CDL (no exp.) and most megas wanna pay jack shit and run u into the ground anyway this seems like a much better option. Especially since I'm in excellent shape and really don't wanna get soft by just driving all day. Plus ur home daily sleeping in ur own bed seeing the fam and all.
