    Couple buddies of mine work for SAIA I think they were both topped out at $.50 a mile last time I heard. They stay in hotel rooms every night.

    I think Sysco pays by the hour. Depending on where you live their pay starts around $20 an hour. I used to have a business card I picked up at Sysco that listed their average driver wages and benefits. If I can find it, Ill scan and post it here for you.

    I just got an offer from them for 21.48 an hour for local work. Time and a half overtime. Anywhere from 60-70 hrs per week. But you do load and unload by forklift and electric pallet jack.

    Don't worry, they will train you on all forklifts and pallet jacks if needed.

    Saia has linehaul drivers and local drivers.

    Linehaul drivers run from one Saia terminal to another, generally pulling sets. Local drivers go out and peddle freight locally and are home every night.

    Sysco is ABC pay that means. Activity Based Compensation when I left in 2010 it was 18.35 hr with 106 pieces a hour in order to get the bonus. Follow all rules and regs. Cause they follow you and you never know when. I was there 5 years got a hernia and could not keep pace anymore. Knoxville was 15-20 stops a day
