I know its not the same. I know the money is great. It just seems like the drivers are miserable.
Yeah, that is part of the culture and environment. Drivers are expected to perform their jobs somewhere between a professional athlete and a slave...literally, you're nothing more than whatever dumb saber-metrics the sports athletes are pushed through, in the eyes of management. Look at whatever ESPN scorecard and then look at the drivers metrics...it's eerily similar and duh no coincidence.
That's the culture.
Enjoy the ten-eleven hours a day...good luck for thirty years.
