2012 / First year wages @ May

But yer 2012 gross is from being a trainer. Thats not what an entry level driver makes.

 

That is true to a point. At Interstate we are not sitting. It depends on the contracts the carriers have.

 

They also short you 50 miles or more in big runs. That dont happen w current employer, if May paid you what you need no one would quit.

 

Paloma, hats off to you driver. You bring truth n facts as well as a few others. May dont care about people, they care about tax breaks n revenue off the driver.

 

And thats why its an "Entry Level Company". Ya cant expect top or good pay at Entry Level anything.

 

Yup .. Stimulus Money. 10k per new hire as long as they stay employed 90 days .. Hence the 90/90 program.

 

May hired over 500 "New" employees in 2012 .. Yet they still have the same amount of trucks as they did in 2008.

Now lets do the Math .. 500 x $10,000 = $5,500,000 in revenue for just "hiring".

Ya more that quit after 90 days, the more they can hire ..

 

I've been on the road since New Years but as soon as I can get to my W 2's I'll be sure to let you know what Iclosed out with when my last date of employment with May was June 18th. you can do the math and figure out how much I was actually making there. then I'll give you the numbers of my current employer and you can figure that out and SEE a huge difference.

 

Thanks for the great info guys. I'm trying to pick a company to start with. I start school the end of this month. Does May have apus on there trucks or idle restrictions? Joker do you have a cooler or refrigerator how do you keep your food good?
