    Still the same, just different region. Then poor driver is home in the Northwest and needs a ld out. See where I'm going with this. Yep bites you in the butt again

    And they always threaten to sue. As soon as a lawyer reads their contract, he has to drop them.

    When I started for my boss I studied my contract very carefully.

    Boss shook my hand and pointed to which direction the beer fridge was. I looked that beer over real close.

    Lol you guys are so cynical Nobody asked what the rates are. I'm sure theyre good enough to make 25% of 85% on a 1099 worth while.

    Based on the information he gave, would you feel confident that the rates they were expressing to the poster are the actual rates they are getting?

    I refuse to answer on grounds that it will make me a cynic.

    Oh and FWIW, last I heard, there are others......TMC for one...... that take a cut BEFORE they calculate driver's percentage.
