Yes, you will earn more. Maybe double your current wage. But it comes at a price. I’ve been shunting for the last few months 18:00 to 03:00. Can’t say I love it, but the pay is good and I know exactly what hours I’m going to do.
It’s given me time to save up for my telehandler license and when that’s done it will be goodbye to the road for good.
I got tired of the poor pay rates, the way we are treated, the long hours… the list just goes on. If you feel it is for you, then I wish you all the luck in the world.
