Last week's net $600. Week before $700.
$65K a year per the YRC web site claim? That's funny - really funny.
Thanks to the union way of doing things, drivers with more seniority than me make two trips to my zero trips.
If a driver with more seniority becomes available before I get a load, then he gets the load and I sit home.
Today is the second time since 1/1/14 that every driver in my bid has gone out twice (two work days) while i sit home and make $0.
Can't do it anymore. I have as many bills as those with 20 years seniority. I can't starve for their sake.
If I'm going to starve, it might as well be in a late model truck, as opposed to the well worn out
of over a million miles tractors that YRC runs. In ten months time on separate occasions - two maxi brake cans fell off the trailer axles.
Nice.
Signed,
Soon to be gone.
YRC Maybrook is starving me

So you only been with YRC for two weeks and you're crying about $650 net average?
You're new, all new guys start off at the bottom, and struggle at first.
You can't live off $650 net a week? -
If you don't run, do they still deduct those union dues
jbatmick, double yellow, Lonesome and 1 other person Thank this. -
Man you must have some bills if your "starving" on that.
Boy Howdey Thanks this. -
This is how it is at an ltl company. Every driver has been through the same thing you're going through. My first two winters were rough, but I made it work. This is life in the winter at ltl, just keep your head up spring is right around the corner.

January and February are the 2 slowest months of the year.
plus you are only at 70% pay which will go up every 6 months .
hog board sucks.
they didn't hire you because they don't need you. because they only have a 3% turnover compared to the rest of the industry's 90+%

wow...$600-$700 take home a week for a part time job. Brother, there's A LOT of people on this board who are gone from their home and families for 2-4 weeks at a time who don't make that much.
You might have come to the wrong place to whine and you might also want to count your blessings.Boy Howdey and misterG Thank this. -
