Hi there! Mandy here, my wife is thinking of a career in trucking but has been reading in the forum about issues with dispatchers, sitting and waiting for loads, and hearing of people getting weekly paychecks that are $200-$300. Basically she is worried about being able to pay the bills (I am currently out of work). What, realistically, can she expect to make her first few years?
Additionally- what issues do you all think she would encounter as a black gay woman? She's not worried about that but I am.
