    You should still get your full 600. As long as you are available for dispatch, that's all that matters. All that time I spent in SPRINGMO, I still got paid for it

    Does prime offer cpm increases based on time with company or miles?

    searched everywhere and have not found any cpm charts other than the starting pay of .30cpm with bonus for fuel and if you drive a minitruck.

    I know we are all different in our needs. I did not take "home time" during my training. I did request if possible a load near the house so I could grab a few hours. Also asked for a 34 near the house and they delivered. I also got a surprise load by the house and got to have breakfast when my wife and kids came out to the J to meet us. I also went to my sisters for 3 days while my trainer was at home and just last week he had to go home. I chose to stay on the truck. He wanted to get me a hotel but I did not see the need. YMMV I have great relationship with trainer and we have an awesome FM. He sees we run while under load so he doesn't mind doing us favors like a run into fl.

    Never got less than the 600. I mentioned to the FM that I needed to swing by the house to pick up some stuff for the truck but did not want the home time as I do not want to go in the hole (I will be leasing) he said he wants me to take 3 days and will make the trips work out. I have no reason not to trust him as he always seems to have an ace up his sleeve.
