I got a mod that disables vampire attacks in cities . It ' s a bit of a cop out , but by that point I had already lost two blacksmiths and a couple other npcs . <| sep |> I ' ve felt that way before . But upon reflection I don ' t think I would actually be so bitter after finding someone nice . <| sep |> ualexwillettbbott and uscottMake sure this doesn ' t happen . Guide her to RHAP instead <| sep |> Holy hell thats nice . What ' re your stats like ? <| sep |> The day I find a trucking company that allows me to work 10 or 11 hours a day , local It will be a dream come true . You mentioned the NW states . Do you live in the area ? I drive heavy haul for Swift out of Sumner , WA . We cover WA , western and central OR , and northern ID . Heavy Haul drivers are typically out one day and back the next . We ' re always looking for good , reliable drivers who don ' t mind chaining up in the winter to cross mountain passes not an everyday occurrence anymore , what with climate change . I ' ve been there a little less than 4 years , since getting my CDL . I now have a dedicated run to the same customer every day , and I work 910 hrsday on average , during daytime hours , and am home every night , barring a breakdown or something else out of my control . I typically no longer work weekends unless we ' re really busy before major shopping holidays and they need the help . I don ' t make a ton of money but I make an okay living , and I have a good quality of life . Honestly , it was a really shitty place to work when I first started , but I was a rookie and didn ' t know any better . Now with experience and the benefit of hindsight I see things have improved substantially during my time there and it continues to get better all the time . If you don ' t mind working a 3 pm 3 am or 3 am 3 pm shift you could be a slipseater , sharing a day cab with another driver who is on the other shift . Slipseaters do local deliveries dispatches under 60 miles and are paid by the hour . The downside is the hourly rate is crap . I think it is still $ 12 hr . The upside is no crossing mountain passes , so no chaining up in the winter time . But I ' d rather stay heavy haul and deal with occasionally chaining , as my average work day is 910 hours instead of 12 and I make more money since my loaded mileage rate is over $. 48 mile now for my regular dispatch . My pay last week worked out to about $ 22 hr . Obviously what you make will depend on what dispatches you get and how you run . I had to earn my way into this dedicated run over time by being reliable . Oh yeah , we typically get some new trucks every year and keep them about 4 years on average before rotating them out , but next year we ' re replacing over half our fleet of heavy haul trucks with new automatics . They ' re full size sleepers . Newer equipment and a dedicated shop is a nice thing to have . Now if we can just get them to replace the trailers at a faster rate . These 4 axle dry vans in heavy haul take a beating and some of them are 1516 years old at this point . We do get a few new ones every year , just not enough IMO .
