I hear ya on Barr Nunn becoming more corporate and less driver friendly.
Those USPS, UPS, dhl , and FedEx loads pay (the company) very well.
If a driver wants to run hard they can make decent money.
I'm not greedy. I'll give my company about 8-10 hrs of driving and about an hour or so on duty, but I'm not killing myself beyond that.
I ran for them 2 1/2 years and for the first 2 they treated me great.
I run much better late in the day and all night. ( im not a morning person) i only seen NE a handful of times, new Jersey was about once a month, and the rest of that ,time was the south and midwest.
However starting around the fall of 2012 they seemed to get greedy, and started to push me up and down the i-95 corridor, and my relaxed evening schedule became way too erratic, dealing with morning and evening rush hours.
I dealt with it for a while, but this was not what I had signed up for, and I began to get opinionated.
This ruffled their feathers and they really started nitpicking and micro managing me.
There were some really good people at their Charlotte and Manchester yards.
A dramatic turn for the worse

Some people consider $500 per week to be 'decent money'. Others don't.
Let's have some real numbers? How much money, for how many hours per week? -

sure it changed a lot since I was there in 04 went from making 28 cpm to 35 cpm and taking home $600 less a month. not to mention they shorted miles back then and I even talked to Bob a couple times about it but had to leave after 4 months couldn't afford to drive for him. do they still have Pella doors and windows. I notice they lost a few of the accounts they had back then like jc penny future..
