I did mine work,Lots of work about depending on what you want to do hours etc .
I do a mix at the moment of multi drop class 2 and trunking class 1 .
You will jump about a bit on jobs untill you find a good company to work for wage wise and one that's were your more than a license .
I have earned on different jobs 36-45k a year plus OT .
Some jobs pay less but I never went for them and some pay more with experience and skills like ADR etc I have settled for now but may invest in my skills to earn more later on .
I don't regret it at all love it get your class 1 so you have more choice and better opportunities getting the first job/chance is the hardest part |

Honestly, and I've been doing it for 32 years, if you've got family, don't bother, you'll never see them. If your single, and don't mind being away all week, living in a tin box in lay bys,being treated like shite by employers and customers, as well as the police and dvsa trying to relieve you of your hard earned cash that you work 80 hours a week for then go for it..
There are the occasional good companies to work for, but, they are few and far between..
Spend your money on a much more beneficial qualification instead.. |

Writing this stuck in a truck
I like doing it
Would i suggest doing it - no
Same as another comment! What you see isnt what its actually like. Its stressful. Some good jobs but they are filling d*ad mans boots . Meaning they either d*e or retire then a good job becomes available |
