I need a driver asap!! east coast mostly.

because he woke up and the dream was over

 

good luck finding drivers,,,,,

 

Im at a job now that pays me 23% of linehaul and FSC. Owner pays all expenses and workers comp, no insurance. I get home most weekends and am home often during the week. I average 9-1500 a week depending where I am willing to run. The truck is a 2005 Frieghtliner Classic XL, 13 speed and a 500 CAT motor. Can you beat that?

 

why would the owner pay 23 % of of the fsc ?
do you put in 23 % of the fuel cost ?

 

IDK and Im not gonna rock the boat asking. All I know is when I get my stub at the end of the week it shows linehaul pay and the FSC. I then get 23% of the sum of those two rates. Our turn over is non-existant.

 

got that right--i wouldnt complain about getting a bit more--i just found it odd
maybe just call it a fuel bonus

 

Yeah i guess you could call it a bonus. I think I spend less than other drivers on fuel as I dont run th etruck constantly. If Im at a shipper and its not very hot or too cold I will turn it off. Same when going into a truckstop for a shower or meal. I dont see running the truck and wasting the fuel if Im not there to enjoy the comfort of the heat/ac. I recently did a run to Williston, ND with another driver with the same truck and set up the same way, he had to fill up three times I only filled twice. it was very cold but I had lots of blankets, so as an experiment I did not run the truck while sleeping or when I was out of the truck for more than 10 minutes. It paid off.

 

2 years exp. for 20%. good luck! bottom dollar around here is 25% usually 30%. no offence but for what you`re paying, if you do find someone with 2 years exp. to take that, they`ll probably have a lengthy record. although i will say, i would rather work for a guy for 20% than run with a mega carier..
