    Getting it in on the tanker side $1663 gross with no fuel bonus and no this not the most money I ever made in a week I come from working on oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico but this pretty decent for a 1st year driver

    Is this the company side of prime or lease operator? I start orientation at prime this Sunday on the tanker side out of pittston, pa. They haven't told me much about the pay except it's .465 cpm. How do you like it there? Thanks

    Lol yeah I seen the title but I wanted to make sure because that's a lot of money. What else do they pay you for other than the mileage? I asked my recruiter but she keeps telling me she will get back to me. You know how that goes.

    That is a good week
    How about showing everyone the bottom of your pay stub
    It shows us your gross for
    Miles
    Fuel bonus
    Stop off pay
    Extra pay
    Other revenue.
    Then let us know how many weeks you have you have driven, that will give an idea of what you are earning per week, also how much hometime you have taken ?
    Those kind of details are more helpful to someone wanting to know how much they can earn on the tanker side.
    Single high mileage checks are b/s , show people your averages !

    How can I tell someone what they will average and they not me I don't take hometime so my numbers going to be different from a individual that's on the tanker side that go home every 3 or 4 weeks etc...

    If you gave approx. gross numbers and said you have been out for the last 6months
    People will have an idea of what one driver can average running tanker

    I could post my 3000 plus miles checks for reefer but that would be misleading
    Reefer company fleet averages about 2200miles per week, that was what I was told was a fleet wide average

    I could post my $2500 in 1 week when I was with schneider, but that's misleading. Anybody can have a good week. Drivers get paid after they finish the load, so if it took over a week to deliver, guess what? One week check is $0 while the next is $1,000. So average 500/week there
