Salary Vs. CPM

thats 31 cpm not to good but depends on what you need? 31 cpm I could deal with if i had to but not with only 1800 miles..and is that after taxes or before?

 

Ask yourself: What are your current needs? what do I need to make in order to be successful? is there any chance for a pay increase? In the end it is your decision and good luck in whatever you choose.

You will not find a meal at a t/s under $10!!!

 

If that's without tax's being taken out, being away from home and no bennie's. #### that. I'd find something else. The owner sound's like a cheap skate.

 

You say you have 4 years verifiable experience but have been out of it a bit. If that bit was longer than 2 years ago your experience is worthless to a prospective employer. You say 1800 miles but how many hours per day? Are you going to put in 10 hours a day loading and unloading? I think the lack of benefits would be deal breaker for me. Best of luck with your choice.

 

I have seen quite a few company's running local drivers in areas around set citys. These are large carriers and normally the salary is 800-1000 a week.
Home several nights a week, most weekends and with benifits.

 

That's $28,000/year, so you wouldn't be paying any federal taxes if you have a family. You also wouldn't be able to afford anything like health insurance or food.
