    Couch potato is a phrase not used by O/O's. There are often potatoes, nuked at the J, hashed at the Petro, but there is no couch.

    If I'm working hard and full week I can do better than $2500 week in and week out.
    That's not my goal though.

    Tomorrow night will mark 7 since since I left my house in TN. All midwest.
    In that time I'll have completed 11 loads, 7 of which were drop and hook at both ends.. only one was live load/unload.

    About 2680 miles $5117 in revenue
    So like $1.91 all miles
    So that's a $3000+ after all costs week for me.
    Don't feel like I worked hard but wasn't an easy week either.
    If you're wondering how a lease driver could have such a high rate per mile remember it's percentage and I averaged about 240 miles per load including deadhead and shorter loads pay more.
