    There is no such thing as minimum 3000 miles. .65 or more would be better. Anything below that is too low. This 0.34 a mile crap or 350 a week training wages has to stop industry wide, I don't know how tox something like that.

    I agree and that is what I was thinking. I dont really know what's going on OTR anymore just trying to step back into it. I have been running in the oilfield awhile.

    I’m looking into the same company. I found them on indeed too. I did find google reviews for them and there’s a lot of 1 star reviews and mostly people saying there scammers and skimming money off the loads for their lease program. But wondering if I could make a go of it as a company driver at 60 cpm in new Volvo truck. They said 3000 miles a week to me too. i’m a bit suspicious but would be great if I could make it work. Here’s link to the reviews I found: (they go by GSC Transholding too, but this company name Gold Star but the reviews all mention Victor a Russian guy associated with gold star carriers/ GSC Transholding your paycheck ;)

    Also this discussion on Chicago companies using 1099 instead w2 paying 60cpm 1 day orientation, Volvo trucks etc might be related to this gsc company. I never done 1099 and not sure if that’s how this company is offering to set me up with. I’m fine with w2. Talk of European dispatcher’s in this thread too. Ie the foreign accents I hear on the line with them.

    Horrible company, dispatch is clueless, maintenance is not 24/7 but noon to 3pm if that, broken English, everyone from different countries, boss is on vacation with coworkers, and no paycheck in sight, other drivers confused, eld is fake, runs are too long in short time, I would not recommend this place on any driver and they don't pay what they say it's all bs
