Is this good pay?? What are you guys making… these are NET paystubs after taxes and 401k contributio

Some simple trip planning and clock management can help with that. If you are a W2 a little luck with being issued a good running truck never hurts either. The first 2 though, that will keep you on time and out of trouble. If your dispatcher knows you are going to get it done, he will give the load that gets you the miles over the guy that's always late cause he is chasing lot lizards at every stop. You get that Friday pickup with a Monday delivery, and he sits til Monday. That weekend run adds a good bit to your pay. It really is those little things that keep you on the upper end of the pay scale.

 

I worked for myself once. the boss fired me for insubordination. Then I went to HR to complain so HR fired me again. I ended up with no boss and no worker and HR thought it was hilarious. The customer wasn't impressed.

 

Agreed
I’m an O/Op
I will burn fuel like no other if it gets me empty and reloaded for the weekend instead of a Monday delivery

 

LOL...I had the same issue!

 

I agree!!

 

Did you get rehired after the owner hired a new boss and HR just to end up back in the same situation again like me?

 

No...I got rehired after I told her to go to hell and she can take all the trucks, equipment, and employees!

 

I had one of those automatic phone answering things at the shop, prompting you to press a certain # for the department you were needing.

I got a kick out of it

Press #1 for Service
Press #1 for Parts
Press #1 for Accounts Receivable
Press #1 for Accounts Payable
Press #1 for HR
or press #1 for the operator
