Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Would you rather get paid 70 cpm and be paid by the hub or 73 cpm and get paid on dispatched miles?

 

Been snowing off and on to your north. Ogden area. Loading for the east coast. Looks like im gonna be in this storm moving east the whole way...

 

Hub miles is to abusable. Practical is supposed to be shortest legal truck route door to door. On one hand I get it, but you'll have drivers going from Omaha to Chicago via st louis

 

As long as they are not paying zip code, to zip code.

 

There are many times that my actual miles is closer to one percent sometimes I even run less miles on the load than it was paid but overall it’s roughly 5% or lower at least in my experience

 

If I remember correctly, Magnum paid ZIP to ZIP when I was there. I recall asking dispatch why the paid miles was nearly 50 fewer than actual and I was told they paid ZIP to ZIP. Not usually a big deal but in this instance I was going from the extreme end of one to the extreme opposite end of the other.

 

I guess super ego now getting into the heavy duty wrecker business..lol

 

heavy duty repo man.......

 

They shut down I 80 eastbound last night at elk most likely because people hit black ice and wrecked … I hit some black ice last night as I was going through Rawlins and went sideways a bit.. i’d already planned on shutting down at the TA after fueling but hit that ice for certain Made the choice to shut down
