    Their, May, is telling me they have a flat pay option for new peeps. 420.00 per week fo r90 days .30 CPM after you solo.

    I'm wondering if I can take the $420.00 and then go CPM afterwords and do my own taxes, guess we'll see. I saw a guy post the numbers somewhere else on here and even at .01 your giving the company, any company around 2K per year for free. On Per Diem. Thanks for the heads up.

    It's $420 a week while you train then $90 per day for 90 days after you solo. You have to get your facts straight, son :)

    When I was a trainee at May 4 yrs ago my student pay was 50 a day. I got off the trainers truck in 9 days and didn't look back. I averaged a minimum of 900 a week gross thereafter which is a bit better than browning pizza or cleaning up coffe at Pilot.

    So you been a driver less than a year and you seem to think ya know it all. From what I see, you know crap. The 420 a week and 90/90 after solo is a good deal at an Entry Level Company.

    you must have a pathetic job to be so negative .. So sad.

    Its not only a write off,its taking part of your per diem also and calling it (Administrations Fees).They take a percentage of per diem,maybe .02 cents or more per mile.All tax free courtesy of the truck driver.10-4

    exactly, I spent about two months looking and the May pay schedule is very good ( Trucking wise) for rookies like myself.
