I will find out for sure, but off the cuff I think it would be about once every 2 weeks.

This seems like a get rich scheme. You sit back and collect all the money while the driver does all the work and struggles to make ends meet. My husband gets 22% per load. He is up at 5am and out the door by 6am, but he is back by 11am, or 1pm if he takes 2 loads. And he makes more than what you are offering. All he has to do is strap or chain the load down and unstrap when he gets their. When he was over the road he made 43 cents a mile, but still all he had to do is drive.

He's kidding, people. The spot is filled for now and it's interesting to see how low it could go and get bites.

5%! come on don't you know when you're getting punked!

Hey Justin, It is Justin right, I tried to work with you on the pay and everything else I don't have a lot of exp but I've always been able to drive the piss out of a truck. Right now I'm pulling a 39' dump trailor and the real heavy loads require a few cigs to get me at my drop safe. Of course I'm talking legal loads and as many times as I drive into and out of nashville if you can't hold a good wheel , the traffic will eat you up or should I say you will wind up tearing the hell out of someone or something. Good luck and keep in touch when you get more serious hopefully your driver won't wind up killing somebody.

I think it's a lesson in bad taste, if this is the case. Worse yet, it's a sick individual who takes pleasure in watching people who may be suffering, grovel for bread crumbs.

Would you seriously even consider working for someone who obviously is taking great pleasure with the amount of attention he is receiving. Negative and positive.

I know the breed very well. But forum rules forbid me from attaching a "true" title to a person of this nature.

Next thing you know, we'll be reading about how some dirt bag former employee burned his house down. While he sits with his Jesus complex wondering why someone would do this to him and his family, as he had helped so many while they were down on their luck.

He is kidding?....well guess what. We have a section for jokes, and this is NOT it. IMO it is despicable that someone would "kid" about something like this when times are so tough for people right now.

Anymore kidding like this in here and it will be dealt with.

His scenario led me to discount him as a real employer.
