    The Otter kind of beat me to it. Contractors with Prime get paid 72% of linehaul rate. You are apparently getting 76% of thatl or 54.72% of total linehaul rate. Not including FSC, toll pay, reefer FSC, stop pay, etc.

    When I left Prime last year, my average was $1.08/mile including all extras. FSC was running at about 42cpm. That meant my 72% of linehaul was roughly 62cpm. You might be averaging 50cpm. Which isn't too bad as long as you can turn the wheels on decent loads.

    But don't try to claim a higher rate than your boss makes. It only makes you look silly.

    You ask for proof like there is something wrong with this arrangement. There is not! And if you found "proof" then what.....:biggrin_25519:

    Well, which is it? If you're going to lie, first off, make it believable. Willtrans is Prime's largest leased-on carrier. They have their own authority. They get 72%, like any other Independent Contractor. Second, in order to lie convincingly, be consistent.


    You FAIL

    Since your credibility is shot, I don't believe anything else you have said or will say. Whether it has to do with Prime or with CR England. And I will not stoop to your level of insulting those who do not bow to the altar you place yourself on. Insults are the mark of someone who cannot even convince him- or herself what is being submitted is true.

    Ciao.

    I guess I don't since they told me you weren't full of it!

    I just missed their sarcastic tone in their typing, and the fact that they don't need to lie, nor do I as I understand the ramifications of telling one story then having to remember who I told the story to so when I/we change our story we don't have to worry about telling it another way and who got version 2 and who got version 1.....slippery slope to have to lie your way out of your own BS!

    I was a crew boss with Nevada Division of Forestry...you know inmate fire crews.....one thing they were consistent in....they all told me they were innocent.....I learned right then, that a liar is a liar and the odds are they will never change!:biggrin_25513:

    I guess your days of "giving advice" or passing along good information is behind you now.....any clue what I am referring to from here on on this Forum?:biggrin_25521:

    Nice catch Injun...it is tough to argue (lie) your way out of things in print...especially when the liar put the words in print him/her self!:biggrin_2559:

    Uhm if they catch up to you and usually do, your pretty much screwed because you just lied on your application and your pretty much terminated instantly and almost guaranteed to be changing job professions!!! So ask yourself would that little white lie be worth telling ??????
