There are two main types of wage classications in the United States: hourly and piece work. Over the road truckers are generally paid as piece workers, paid by the piece. Miminum wage laws for the most part do not apply to piece workers.
It does take a different mind set to be a content piece worker, its not for everyone.
Ok I quit, but I’ll be back…. Maybe

I wish I could just start a business and convince people to work for 90% of their pay, that would be great.

Dude one time I ate a bad roller dog or something and I was stuck at a shipper with no bathroom and it hit me like a brick and shot #### out of my ### right in that truck and the plastic bag only caught like half of it.austinmike and hope not dumb twucker Thank this. -
In all seriousness, why would you personally consider taking a job that doesn't pay by the hour? I dont think piece work is for you.hope not dumb twucker, Iamoverit and Chi Town Steers Thank this. -

I’m not trying to be a dick but zip code miles is definitely a way for the company to pay less money to the driver, so every 10 miles 1 of them is a donation to the company. It is what it is. They make the pay confusing on purpose. And it’s definitely not just hogan. But it is working for free.austinmike, hope not dumb twucker and Gearjammin' Penguin Thank this.
