    Celadon is 33 cents per mile if you have at least six months experience. If you have 0-6 months, they put you with a trainer for your first 10,000 miles and pay you 18 cents a mile. You don't have to do the initial contract bs after that if you didn't attend their school afaik, so you qualify for the 33 cent solo rate then. Team rate is 21 cents per mile (42 combined) for all drivers except recent trainees who attended their school. Celadon does offer a 3 cent per mile bonus on all miles if you hit their mileage milestones for the month.

    So is all this information pretty well ironed out?
    Are we missing anything?

    still need to iron out a few small details but for the most parts that's how things shake out. Just need to keep an eye on raises and other companies that can make the list.

    Anyone know who can knock McElroy down a peg?
