Jamis Ross - Just Started A Lease to Purchase

Yeah, you're about to be screwed.

You are being classified as an Independent Contractor (responsible for tractor maintenance costs, fuel, and tax implications) while being treated as an employee. This will not end well.

Look at Windy Hill.

 

I'm thinking you are over your head, not because you are inferior, but because most L-P agreements that first-timers walk into are bad. You are legally obligated to pay all costs in the lease but the company IS NOT obligated to give you enough work to pay those costs.

Read the reviews on SuperEgo, not just from SuperEgo, like on this forum & Google or Indeed.

If the company provides truck, trailer, finds the loads you are not independent contractor except in the mind of the company. In that circumstance the company is misclassifying an employee which saves them $$ for taxes. The IRS will find you and you'll pay those taxes or else.

 

Do you live in Reno or Ft. Myers?

 

Run, run away as fast as you can. Total scumbags!

 

My thoughts are extraordinarily naive or a troll

 

Thoughts…

You are paying money to work at that company. You are paying for the truck, the maintenance and fuel. You pay for everything but own nothing. Barring any breakdowns, you will make about the same as a company driver. So why not just be a company driver?

 

Do you live North of Interstate 4 or South of Interstate 4

 

So you’ve gone all of the way through starting the job, orientation, truck selection, and you’re still unsure of what you’re doing ? Probably should have figured that part out before you left the house.
