    So they want to start with 17.51/hr with dip and overtime. I guess you get paid for pre/post trip, hours during driving and 10 tiers for cases per hour. Let's say If I had a 50hr route and maintained a productive pace and got the route done in 50hr and made dip what am I looking at gross? It would be like $969 without dip but does dip add to hourly or would it add to the $969? Thanks

    Ps. I don't know why they have to make it so confusing

    Well I haven't started yet but that's what I was wondering. From what I understand it's called driver incentive program and the faster you go the the higher the incentive. I think you get paid more per case like if your route is 600 cases you do 50 cases per hour you get 0.21/case but if you finish at 60 cases per hour you go up a tier to 0.25/case on top of you hourly pay. I think that how it goes but I was asking exactly how it did work

    I work for Sysco North Tx. but on straight truck side, which is hourly. Dip pay for transportation drivers here, .22 a case, premium is .26 a case if you have to push it off far, upstairs, downstairs, the managers decide what stops are premium. They also get paid by the mile and an hourly pay for delay and anything over 40 hours which is usually 19-22 an hour. Here in North TX we are non-union, Houston and San Antonio are teamster. Our VP here says his dip pay drivers make 1200-1400 on average. I've been with the company 20 months, overnight drivers and drivers who have had set routes for many years usually earning 100k+. Having heard from a lot of newer drivers however, after putting in their hours averaging 1000 a week, loads vary by the day as do the routes etc. I'm working my way out of Sysco N. TX., made decent pay my first year with a lot of OT but the VP of our hub has put a squeeze on OT and if I can't work the hours than the job just isn't worth it. A lot of aggravation with loads, freight burried, routes not exactly routed right stop to stop, than they complain and ask why u skip stops, IDK, just working my ### off digging out freight and instead of driving by the chophouse figure i drop their groceries before driving 10 blocks away to another, stuff like that. You will have some room in a trailer to sort and dig freight out and organize, shouldn't be as bad like a straight truck. By us they put new hires with a driver for 3 months, pay 19 an hour to start until the 3 months than dip etc. on your own, overnight drivers always have a partner for safety and help with load.
