I emailed a guy on Craig's list for a job. I been trying to find something local. He asked me my qualifications. So I told him. Then he told me a little but about the job. First thing 39.5 cpm I laughed he got upset with me. He said there was other pay. But I ain't got time for that. I reminded him I been doing this for awhile And I'll look elsewhere. He was mad.

So why come on here and complain? Move on to the next job posting....
-
Not complaining just though it was interesting.
-
What are the other pays they guy mentioned? Some of those assessorial pays add up to quite a bit.
rockee Thanks this. -
I would have at least found out about the other things that pay some of that can add up to a lot
rockee Thanks this. -
Stop pay was $18 a stop and that's all I got out of him. If it was a peddle route with 10 plus stops over 300 miles that might have worked. There are to many companies out here paying way more.

I'll keep looking this gig I got now is sweet just getting tired of not being home.
-
Mileage pay on a local gig, that's hilarious

Hi Winkjr, I've done that too, emailed someone, and then bash them when they tell you the pay, then I felt kind of bad for doing that. The guy had the "chutzpah" to say, "well, times are tough, and people need jobs", and I said,"it's a shame that's how you are getting your drivers, hiring people that are out of options". He never got back to me. Actually, 39.5 cpm isn't the worst pay, but I agree with you, I wouldn't do it for that either.

IMHO its wise to hear him out~~buddy of mine went to work for a guy in PA~~~that told him there was more&he was the first to listen past the .35 a mile
Turns out its approx 300 miles a day paid on hub.....same 5 stops'25 a stop...Then since he has to pull pallets to tail there is 25 stop handling~~no touch just pull to back~~&he has electric jack on trl...... and last stop is in Bronx so 100 NYC surcharge...then bounce back home to PA~~~~he averages abiut 7.5 hrs a day 5 days a week...been at it little over 4 years now.....do the math,,p,,the .35 a mike is almost irrelavant....just shy of 450 a day for less than 8 hrs.....which is a little more than 100 a day more than local NYC buster brown prevaling teamster wage.....lol123456, Battle Born and Dark_Majesty_06 Thank this.
