TRUCK DRIVER
“I get paid 40 cents a mile. I have
days I turn in over 600 miles and days
I turn in less than 200. ... A really
good day on the job for me is lots of
miles ... and being able to get to the truck
stop early to find a spot and have a nice
clean hot shower followed by a good meal.
What makes it a really, really good
day is if I am going to make it home
that night after perhaps 12 to 19 days
on the road.” 19
