What are (if any) average miles discrepancies on your pay stub?

My experience is that you're always gonna get cheated out of 10-20 percent miles
There are exceptions
Check out the Poly threads
They get .50 on the hub
But they have other issues.

 

I have the same issue. There are certain runs I'm losing 30 miles on, they do by zip code so in bigger cities land mass wise, ie Jacksonville Fl, I could be driving 25 miles for 0 miles deadhead. It makes no sense. Other runs are dead on. I complain but it falls on deaf ears, take it for what it is and make sure you ask your next company how they pay.

10 to 20 percent is really steep though. That means 20 percent of your 70 is wasted every week, shesh!

 

You are stressing about 30 miles on a 2200 mile load?

Grow up!

 

Nah I'm the same way so I feel you. I look at 14 bucks like it's food for the day and I budget and plan accordingly for the day. Losing 14 bucks is enough of a loss for me not to roll the dice on mega millions or grabs an extra drink, which really who needs any of it but money is money. It always starts out with 30 miles here and there and then the limit starts to get pushed.

Show them you pay attention to detail or get steam rolled later. Once I had to call about missing layover for 2 months, it's just the fact though, you do the work you deserve the pay. You may not need it but I want every penny out here, I'm living my life in a truck for God's sake. This is no normal job. (Plus my penny pinching has left me a nice sum in the bank over the course of time) and isn't that what it's all about.

 

Every once in a while the difference is really bad. Most of the time I drive only 10-15 miles extra. Very very rarely it happens that I'll drive 2 miles and get paid for 10. A couple times (I did speak up on those and no one cared) the difference was 100+

HHMG miles man. It sounds like you're getting paid practical if it's dead on most of the time.
