[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 1314773, member: 52978"] We had about 4 team runs out of our building (white tractors) and those guys are the only drivers who stay gone overnight (unless you get caught in an ice storm or something) I believe those guys drive around 4000 miles/week and they get paid mileage. That is the top job in feeders. The way it works is they post those OTR jobs for bid and the long term drivers usually snatch them up. Then they choose anyone in the department they want to be their co-driver. A noob who just came into feeders was chosen by a vet to drive with him and did he ever get lucky. No layoffs, no getting bumped and a fast lane to achieving seniority. In feeders they like to string the new guys along a lot. bring them in, send them back...work 3 days..layoff for 2..etc. This guy fell into a job right out of packages that's paying him probably 125-130k...that's the way to go..if you can swing it.
