So what's starting pay at your company then? 5 years is a long time.
If I ever left Landstar, figure I'd pull a gas can. Maybe pneumatics.
I don't like driving fast though.
Desperately need OTR Drivers

My father who wasnt a great dad but an excellent father beat it into my head (not physically) that the definition of integrity is follow through.
Or in his words and a pithy quote: "integrity is doing exactly what you said you would or more"Tug Toy, Dave_in_AZ, slow.rider and 1 other person Thank this. -
That’s for Haz/Tanker endorsed dry and reefer. No actual tanker.
Like I mentioned above though, I’m trying out 70 cent and $1750/wk guarantee. No luck yet as likes been mentioned, people think it’s not real. Heck, if I lowered to 55 cents I’d probably get more calls!
Edit: I agree though, pay should be 100k minimum but it’s getting not far off! Long overdo but companies can only raise pay as rates allow. And it’s impossible to lower pay once you’ve raised it. That slows everything down.Last edited: Jul 18, 2021

Averaging pay of 1100 to 1400 a week does not at all work out to 70k a year average.
Do they think we wont check the math?59EX, Dave_in_AZ and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
Bulkmatic near me runs that add for a rolling 4 on 4 off schedule.
70k... 1100 to 1400...
Only the 1400 comes to 72k
1100 at 57200....
This is why I've grown very fond of day rate pay... I know my salary.
Truck breaks down... I'm paid
Receiver holds me 10 hours, I'm paid.
Plant line takes a dump... im paid
A 65 mile load that takes all day...
I'm paid.
As an employee... I should not have to take the risk off the owner
On things I cannot control.
No if bulkmatic simply said 4 x 4 for 1400 a week... I'd call them
It'd be a pay cut..
Balanced by better life balance.
Work an extra day during a 4 off cycle ... my choice...and I'd be close enough to current 5 day paySwitcher Thanks this. -
