is it possible to undercut local jobs?

No its not ok to do that. Then people like us who work hard for our money make it hard to make a living thats why rates are so low

 

i ddon,t think they hire you anyways. they hire the more experienced due to liability issues. if you that little go work for a fast food joint

 

Undercutting a rate? Seriously? Dude, not cool. Think about it, some driver or company drove that rate up so they could make a living hauling that freight. And you want to come in and undercut them just because you don't need as much to live. Well, bully for you. But other drivers need more what with supporting families and whatnot.

McManly, you can scrape by on $2,000/month on any job. Please stay out of trucking. The rest of us need more, and guys like you coming in are gonna screw up our incomes. Go flip burgers or something instead, $2,000/month is really good money for that.

 

Kind of reminds me of a guy that was on here for awhile by the name of Lupe . . . same type of questions . . .

 

I would tell them that minimum wage is your goals, after all if you shoot low you can never be disappointed.

 

I smell troll.

 

2,000 running local is probably all you are going to get anyway. They normally only run up to 50 hours a week and good luck if you can get one to pay you overtime after 40 hours.

 

I was grossing over 1k a week running local in chicago

 

if trucking companies were concerned about experience and safety. they wouldn't be hiring anyone with no cdl and the govt wouldn't be shoving boxes down our throats.
