It’s hard to calculate his annual pay. He will start at $.28 per mile.

The truck company that hired him pays a little less than others but my son liked their excellent benefit programs.

News Year’s Eve my son will take a bus to Charlotte and New Year’s Day will start his one week training. Then he’s back here to Atlanta for his on-the-road training. He’ll be driving solo when his trainer gives his okay.

"What does a new truck driver get to start?"

Right about half what a newly-minted engineer gets, less than a fourth what a lawyer with an ivy-league degree will get.
