Hello fellow drivers i have a very good question why are o/o always complianing about?
SHADY BROKERS WITH LOW RATES
1.I HAVE A EASY SOLUTION FOR THAT STOP USING THEM AND fTHE RATES GO UP FOR EVERYONE.
2.Learn how to add and divide if you dont know how ask someone the only stupid question is a question not asked.
Example if a load is going 1769 miles and paying 1,950 thats
Thats is 1.10 a miles would you take that seems like everyone on here would say no but someone is taking these cheap ### loads.thats the problem with the o/o of america to many of us accept these ###### loads you cant blame the brokers for trying to make money your doing the same thing you wouldnt turn down a load going 800 miles for 5,000 would you? so why would a broker give you more if u accept garbage.Im begging o/o out the to please think before you accept a load do the math its easy i didnt know how to do the math until someone here showed me.I know everyone is not looking to make the same money some people are content with 1000-1500 per week for themselves but remember there are people like me who live in big cities where tolls are higher rent gas and motrgage to 1000-1500 would not work for example car liability insurance in newyork is 200-300 a month and in virginia its 50 big difference.So my piont is look out for you felllwtruckers and dont take cheap freight i gaurantee if just half stop taking cheap freight everyone would make a good living not just theguy paying only a 300 a month mortgage.
Examples of how to figure out cpm
Load 1769 miles
Pay 1900
Divide $1900 by 1769miles that equals 1.10 a miles
Please take the time to do little simple math. That load should pay no less than 3500 thats just me but seems like they always get someone to take it thats crazy.Remember this is a business if you wanna say your a trucker just park it in your front yard so your neighbors know your a trucker and leave the business to the real o/o.
Sorry for the mispelling and bad grammar i was rushing besides im a trucker we are supposed to be stupid right Lol....
Why are o/o always complianing?

I don't complain, in fact I am very happy with my income, loads, and my business decision making process. Maybe you should surround your self with more positive people.
Sure you see some people on here complain about brokers and rates, but they are not hauling the frieght, just commenting on the state of the rates.G/MAN, kw600, LGarrison and 1 other person Thank this. -
You can preach this crap all you want and it will never change anything. There has always been lowballers and there will always be lowballers. It is business, and not mine or anybody else's problem if YOU CHOOSE to live in a rat infested over priced and over populated area. But coming on an internet forum and "complaining" and throwing around the simplest of math is not going to help your situation. The northeast has always had cheap freight, and always will.
TheRoadWarrior, aiwiron, LGarrison and 2 others Thank this. -
And by the way, we are not always complaining.

DEMO and TheRoadWarrior Thank this. -
They wouldn't be complaining if they run for Mercer.
I have heard any Mercer drivers complain about the freight or rates we get.
It's great to work for such a good carrier. -
