Gonna hang on to this 16 till they drag me out of it.

 

I like my 15. Finally got all the bugs out of her but she's an automatic. Love her most days...she needs the chrome wheel caps thou lol

 

Thanks, can't be much worse. I am averaging less than 10k odometer miles a month(which means paid miles are in the low 9k range) and this last trip was 6.5 mpg. And no one seems to care when I try to get things to improve which tells me that they are politely showing me the door. Home time with the wife is a low priority when one is in jeopardy of not having a home to go to. Right now between Poly and Magnum I have exhausted my entire savings and would have to borrow money to file bankruptcy...at this point I can't even afford a bus ticket to quit. As of this moment, my experience with Magnum is tied with my experience with Prime for being the biggest mistake of my career. Sorry if that bunches up anyone's jockeys but it's the plain truth. I honestly don't remember ever feeling this discouraged about the future.

 

Loading in Gainesville ga go8ng back home for the night. Then to New Braunfels TX for Monday. Then reload Monday in China Grove TX going to Jackson WI.

 

Keep Ur head up SSB, better days are ahead!

 

Just a question. Have you spoken to Nick? Just let him know you NEED more miles, and why. I had to when I first started here. I wasn't late to any appointments or anything and I was feeling the same. He got me moving.

Also In the past I would say call Paul but now Tony is the driver relations contact. So give him a chance to do his job. When I started for Magnum the first time I was in the same place. I didn't go home for 3 months making $. As being away from my family wasn't any deal compared to being with them on the street.

But also when someone has made up his or her mind there is no other avenue. Hope you get it figured out man. If you find a better gig than Mangum I'd say go.

 

But also if you do the math at 9000 miles at 40 CPM (guessing at lowest CPM) is $3600 a month divided by two is $1800 gross every two weeks. So your really close to all the recruiting posters of $1000 a week.

When I left I went to GFI out of ATL and was salaried at a good bit more but worked 7 days a week for 6 months. Made some good money but was going out of my mind. So I was happy to come back to less $ for much more piece of mind.

Best of luck man. If you win the lotto don't forget the rest of us broke ### drivers at LTD
