Walmart here I come!

Seymour Indiana. Complaining about the load optimizer. I could've made more with slightly fewer miles and more activity pay.
Still, in 3 days I've grossed slightly more than $1300.

 

That's most likely his weekend mileage pay.

 

Yes, that's correct. Regular pay is .4775/cpm.
Saturday I parked with one minute available on my 14, Sunday I parked with four minutes available on my 14.
Just trying to show you can make GOOD money and not violate hours of service or kill yourself.

 

....... wow.

 

I deadheaded close to 400 miles from Albany, Or. to Red Bluff, Ca.. Although out of Porterville we have real low deadhead. We pick up a lot from the import warehouse going to the consolidation warehouse.

 

Our farthest store is Minot, ND. 620 miles one way. Always an empty move back on the weekends. No backhauls available. Vendors are closed on the weekends and no drop trailers. Most of our North and South Dakota and western Minnesota stores have lots of deadhead miles. I came back from Aberdeen SD empty on Sunday. 380 mile deadhead. I had extended my workweek and got back to the yard with 45 minutes left on my 70 and a 3500 mile week. Seems like they are more interested in using up your hours instead of deadhead miles. At least at my DC it seems like that.

 

I wouldn't know what to with myself with that much window time!

 

Extend what's that? I usually end my week with 64-67 hrs on the books.

 

Extending is working an extra day. If you have hours left after working 5 days you can extend into the sixth day to burn them up.
