Whatever happened to M-F driving jobs? Are they all extinct? Seems like most driver jobs want M-F plus the “occasional” Saturday. Occasional means what exactly? The work and life balance sucks now. Companies demand you do multiple positions but won’t pay you for it. I been driving for 8 years local class B. Can’t find anything near me that has a fair work schedule. I’m done ranting. Drive safe out there my people. God bless.

The hourly work schedule for the local driver has always been terrible. Even if you're not second or third shift, companies demand both your ability AND your availability. I'm a Dad with two teenager's at home and my whole life has been a balance of just trying to find more time to be a Dad. I honestly don't know how the over the road driving dads do it with family at home. My advice is if you have a good local job that pays the bills, count your blessings even if they demand extra hours from you.

I had a great paying local job but the on call is what drove me crazy. It gave me anxiety. I’m in Class A school now hoping to get something local or regional. I have endorsements so hopefully that helps me find something.

I’ve made it 5+ years in a NY M&A practice and have consistent exceeding expectations reviews. I’ve had a few mental breakdowns because of work during this time, but thankfully made it through.

I’m scared shitless that I’ll spiral out of control both at work and at home if something doesn’t change soon. Any suggestions on how to keep this job and keep it together?

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
