I locked myself out my truck about a week ago. Didn't want to pay the 75 to get someone out to open it so I bought a lockout kit from the truck stop I was at and spent 2 hours trying with no success. Finally another trucker came by saw me and used to break into cars for a living (repo man). Long story short he used my lockout kit and got it done in 30 min.
As far as the pay goes, I just started with swift not too long ago. Seemed to be going really well for me and I thought this was a great company, still do. But one of my friends that I'd gone to schooling with had gone with a leased owner op plan through them and by the end of 6 weeks that driver actually owed swift more money than they would give her. She ended up going to a rival and is doing well right now.
Sorry to hear about your luck. Hope things get better. -
I just talked to a DCS driver, he delivers to chillis and jack in the box. He said he was going to make 67k this year. Don't know if that helps but FYI. Good luck.

Plenty of JB's "dedicated loops" pay .32, pretty common actually.
Usually the home every weekend, or every few day runs.
Even the otr runs are 300 mile average, so the higher cpm don't make much difference.
I'm sure they have some gravy dedicated lanes/accounts - they all do. But if you don't get one of them you're SOL.Vincent2254 and horsecrazychic22 Thank this. -

I actually cheated in that department. I knew hostlers at various customers cell phones and I would contact them before I even left my last place. I also liked to do the yard checks which helped me to know where the majority of our trailers were. Portland was definitely easier in finding empties than Stockton was.
