Here is a company to look in that I was at for 6 1/2 years. Transport National in Sharonville, Ohio. Don't let the "Low" percentage rate of 23% or 24% discourage you, even though they have elogs and are governed at 65 I made a lot of money.
MJ1657 and Pontimaniac Thank this. -
Man that's pretty good right there. I'm just so used to working a hourly wage that this whole trucking pay scale of cpm or %pay kinda intimidates me. I never been the type to gamble with my income but that gives me a big piece of mind knowing i to have at least the potential to make that kind of change starting out as a newbie. Did they force you to stay out a couple weeks straight for that amount or were you home every weekend during that process?
-
i meant CDLS as in license with the s in the mix lol.
-
Thanks I'm going to look into them now and see if they hire new grads. What made you leave them after 6yrs?
-
Go percentage if you can't go hourly, mileage is a fools game. I'm curious forgot to asks earlier, did TMC tell they would have you home on the weekends every weekend?
MJ1657 and slim shady Thank this. -
Yeah the recruiter said that i would mostly be home every Friday afternoon until either Sunday night or monday morning but on they're website it says i think 48 out of 52weeks for the year. I wonder if it's optional or Mandatory to have to stay out that long sometimes.
-
Well I don't know, and maybe on a dedicated type route it would work fine. I do know on an otr gig making weekend home time a priority can limit income pretty quickly.Oxbow Thanks this.
-
Didn't Gunner mention to make 1100 you'd have to stay out 2 weeks
-
I'm not sure I've lost track. I just have an inherent distrust of recruiters and I know enough about over the road trucking to know your not going to work five days, home in the weekend every weekend and make money. Especially for a bottom feeder, there are definitely regional type work and niche carriers that you could do that with but not these industry wrecking companies.Oxbow, MJ1657 and Pontimaniac Thank this.
