I started at 35 Canadian, with load/unload and tarp/untarp premiums, and cleared the equivalent, in good weather, to approximately $17/hour Canadian.
If they don't offer a good pay package with regular increases, and proper training, I'd reconsider personally. Those are tantamount to success in this industry. Without room to grow, you won't have the ambition to do more, and without good training, they are just setting you up for failure (which could end your life, or your career). -
I agree with Zeviander. If there are regular increases at set intervals, then it has the tools built in to keep motivating you..
You want to find a company where you will be happy sticking out your one year of slavery. -
They said every 3 months I would move up 3 cents

To be honest I've already drove some states otr in a flatbed I already kno how to strap and tarp I just didn't want to put the guy that I worked for he was a owner operator but he gave a bad reference on me because I told him that I wasn't gone work on his trucks and drive the truck that jus wasn't gne happen cus I wasn't getting paid to work on the truck just drive it so I left and had applied with maverick and they called him and he sed that I didn't come to work lol so maverick sed I have to work a year with someone otr before I can apply with them again so I don't put him down on my application nomore
