    Not liking the long days the older I get. 12 hour days are about it for me, prefer 10s. 12 hour days burn me out. It's ok for some guys, but not me.
    I.m.o. this is also why hey cant keep drivers in the industry.

    Ya I get it. Been doing it so long I'm just used to it. Same why we can't keep guys, even the youngsters only want 10 to 12 max.

    Drivers are way under payed for what we deal with. We should be paid at least 40 an hour, mileage pay doesn’t work. To much traffic, construction, and accidents that slow you down. Then you get to your destination just to get held up for hours waiting to be loaded or unloaded. Who would want to get into this industry, when you make more at a warehouse and are home everyday.

    Safeway was the worst. Darn near every stereotype of Chinese restaurants you've ever heard are true.

    What is with the need for a lot of truck drivers to speed up when you go to pass? Anyone? Bueller?
