USX input needed

if you have a safety issue,deal with it even if you are loaded.your dispatcher has nothing to do with making you sit,the load planners issue the loads.they have customer service reps to liase with the customer if the load might be late or your dispatcher will call another driver to pick the load up from you to deliver on time.

 

if you decide to go with it,i'll give you a heads up on deductions and per diem.
and the dreaded self employment tax.

 

I'm not one that says all lease deals are bad. But based on some of your recent questions and responses I'm not sure you understand the business side of this yet. And most that fail in this business is because they don't understand the numbers.

You asked about making money with rising fuel prices. You should get a fuel surcharge (fsc) on to of your mileage rate. This will likely be linked to the national average of fuel prices and will increase or decrease with that average. When I was leasing I made more money as that price increased because of my fuel economy.

The two concerns I have for you are that who ever you are talking to at USX is not giving you all the info you need and that if you are missing info like this at this stage what other info are you missing. It is hard when you don't even know what a questions to ask. May I suggest you start there as a company driver and learn about company systems first, talk to purple that have been leasing for a while before you make this jump.

They may be the best company in the world but once you are running for them with a lease they are going to expect you to run your own business. And"i didn't understand that" is not going to cut it.
