    Dude, for $1500 to $1600 a week I think you can find a job and be home every weekend. I've only been in trucking going on 3 years and have always been home every weekend. Everyone's situation is different but I think you deserve better. Thanks for the videos.

      Yeah. I know can be home every week at the current pay, but I’m sacrificing pay for experience. With more experience, I can make more money when I go out on my own.
      Thanks for watching brother and stay safe.

    Delgado I worked for ATS in 2023. And let me tell you there a great company but they lost a lot of contracts and freight. ATS is known for as a heavy haul company. ATS is hauling basic freight meaning pipes, wood, coils and etc. When I left I was almost level three. I spoke to Nicole a week ago and she explain to me they drop down the cents per mile. When I was at ATS. It was two options percentage of the load or cents per mile. Remember ATS in Houston Texas and Minnesota they got 8 Axles and higher trailers. I believe ATS, has a the opportunity to do better but I get it market is screw now but many go to ATS because they have a system in place to get you from level four to a level three.
