Is there trucker jobs with shifts that only last 10 hours?

I would like to have a family one day so I don't want to be gone from home for long periods of time. Is there a type of tractor trailer job where you go in at 8am and travel a couple hours up and back and get off at work at like 5 or 6? I'm in highschool btw

Maybe with local delivery like UPS or FEDEX. But, most all truck drivers work much longer hours, more like 16 hours a day. They do NOT make much money. You should plan on going to college and getting a degree so you can have a career of some kind. I recommend Accounting. Accountants are in high demand. They work in an office, work regular hours, and get paid a nice salary. They are off on holidays and have benefits such as health insurance and retirement plans. Good luck.

When looking at legal job postings, I see a lot of posts for paralegals. Some of the salaries are more than associate attorneys I know are making. Some are even more than senior lawyers I know make at small law firms, and definitely more than a lot of solo attorney I know. Why is this? Are paralegals becoming more valuable than attorneys to some companies? Do you think this profession will continue to grow and evolve? Will they become more valuable and make more money? Also I am talking "real" paralegal positions here, not legal assistant jobs or legal secretaries.

Currently I'm trying to look for other jobs with higher pay. However, the current job I am at severely underpays its workers. If I am at an interview and they ask how much I make, what are some clever ways to avoid answering the question such that I do not look bad or a bad worker? PS. I put this under Law&Legal section because I'm unsure if there is a category for job interviews. If I'm in the wrong section please direct me to the correct one. Thanks!
