Profile For African Warrior

I love driving at night. I work a dedicated account, driving in the Northeast Region, so driving at night when possible is great. Like most people stated, driving is generally geared on when the Customer expects the freight. Also driving at night requires you to get much needed rest. Requires you to take consistent breaks & stops so that your blood is flowing and operating with all your senses.

To make a long story short, We dont control when the product needs to be delivered. So be prepared to drive when you are needed

First a bit about myself since I am new here: I am currently working for a contract security company and am about to go to my 3rd site due to layoffs, and closings (I have not been with the company for even 2 full years, and each one has been a pay cut). I have had in interest in trucking but after doing some research, following forums, speaking with truckers as they come to our sites for inspections, and reading the Becoming a Truck Driver, I want to make the career change.

A question that I have has to do with driving day vs. night. I know there are factors such as appoint times, and when drop off sites are open, however I was wandering how lot of companies treat drivers her prefer to drive at night? Again, working security I am use to crazy hours, and I feel much better when doing a night shift then working up at the crack of dawn, so I would rather do the bulk of driving at night. Thanks for the help!
