Well I hit the road again Monday morning. Word on the street is its gonna be a 3to5 month job. Could be more could be less. Its been fun getting to sleep in my own bed every night, but all good things must come to an end. The plus to all this is that I'll get to be home on the weekends. Its weird thinking about it, but my family seems to cope extremly well when I do this. Plus the wife and I get along great when its all said and done. As for me I miss them a lot, but I get to hang with my Sparkys and Knuckle Draggers all day and night. My pay increases by four an hour untaxed, and I manage to eat off of 30 dollars a week. Also our rooms are paid for. Now im getting excited about it. I honestly can say I love my trade and I love my brothers in the trade. You get close to your brothers when your on the road. I even went so far as to get a pay by the month gym membership down there.

I cant wait to head out now.

Good luck.  I travel for work but nothing like that.  I always like that pretty much all of my expenses are covered when i am on the road but after a few days and nights i definitely miss my family and my own bed

Glad to hear it's not too far from home that you can't still have family time, thats always a plus.

 

Good luck and be safe !!!

Same here. Summer time sucks for me also, i wish i was one location for a few months. Instead it changes every few days.
