It has been a year since I began my career as a Professional Truck Driver. According to the research the average income for starting CDL holders averaged around 56k per year. Not great, but a good start right? I mean rent after covid alone is 15k+/yr. Add to that another 6k per year in vehicle payments and almost 6k in child support that would still leave nearly 20k per year for food, insurance, gas and other consequentials. Unfortunately, I joined a dishonest trucking company that has left integrity in their past and honesty at home. These types of trucking companies, I am told, are the norm. At this degenerate company, however, I was told 52k per year could be expected. Instead I am looking at about 35k!!! And this is with a 60+ hour a week commitment. This has put such a strain on my finances that I am still homeless after a year as a professional truck driver. For eighteen months my things have been in storage. My cat has been shuffled from home to home. My vehicle needs thousands
