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.
40 hours a week at 60 miles per hour is 2,400 miles per week. at .28 cents / mile that is $672 / week before being raped by the govt(s). The works out to around 40K per in base + other benefits. Not bad for pushing a rig and listening to the radio all day.
