    For some context the first load pays $6 more than I would make as a company driver. The second $5 less.

    I’m just trying to figure out what’s in Springfield that would have that many loads to move.

    You're a company driver at a mega. The phrase chicken feed comes to mind.

    You also get the privileges of having a camera in your face, and everything you do from how long you turn the start key being critiqued as added bonuses.

    Make an offer, lol

    I got $2.81 SLC to Auburn, WA and now I think I’m SOL!

    Not like that cheap load going to CA puts you on good money…California is becoming the new Florida now.
