    That's pretty respectable for the miles driven - about $0.645 CPM.

    I've always been hesitant to run on percentage, because (AFAIK) there's no way to tell the gross figures reported to the driver are accurate. That said, you've made this company sound pretty solid, so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled.

    If you don't mind my asking, what's your normal home time look like? I usually go home once a month for 3-4 days, so I'm curious how I might fare by comparison.

    Thanks, lately I’ve been going home for 4-5 days each month, but to maximize earnings 3-4 days would help. We can within reason take as much hometime as we can afford, some stay out for two to two and a half months and take 10 days off...we’re MN based and some of those drivers love to fish lol.
     
    misterG, Very Metal, Vic Firth and 2 others Thank this.

    How often do the Alaska runs come up? I used to live there and would love to run the ALCAN consistently. Thanks!

    If you are just passing by and thought you might stop in for a career, think again!!!

    You see, I smiled at rattlesnakes and they bit me, and now I too am full of poison. I am commonly asked to describe my employment at Kivi Brother’s Trucking to which I can only reply; It was A vetted vacuous experience that embodies the resemblance of a flaming bag of dog waste.

    Recruiting is something of what a hip new teacher tells you to get you to share what's in his bong in a van behind the football field. Cannibals are less man hungry. The company eunuch is at the head of dispatch which itself resembles a high school beer party before mom and dad unexpectedly show up. Upon visiting you will find each choking on their own lies spitting out the adventures of Pinocchio from their bloated purple tongues.

    Management, emblems of the misbegotten and the rejected, last seen hiking up mount ego are poster children for the hysterically overt. Flaunting physical appearances and characteristics that are consistent with heavy amphetamine abuse they are published in Who's Who as "What's That"? They Effectively turn the sideshow of a three-ring circus into a freak show. Not even half as intelligent as they appear these comic book figures are branding a company image with what looks like things that all of us would first kill off in a terrible B rated horror movie. Honestly, I'm surprised that the country music industry hasn’t jumped all over this.

    To be clear, I'm not saying that Kivi Trucking is implementing a bad business model. Nothing of the sort. All I am suggesting in my quite modest and reserved proposal is that by way of comparison anyone could take a broom, dip it in brake fluid, stick it up a monkey’s *ss, let it jump on a trampoline and it would write a better business plan on the wall.

    Disenchanted, the stress does not change, and the mood is monotonous only emphasizing the main motif: dissatisfaction, disappointment and despair. Soon, we no longer question why we are numb, we are just numb until returning home depressed and disgusted. They will murder your spirit, drain your energy and corrode your character.

    I look back in anger at the past year – THE MISSING PAYROLL, wasted time, THE MISSING PAYROLL, listless hours, THE MISSING PAYROLL, the seemingly endless days of waiting, THE MISSING PAYROLL, the daily futile talks and THE MISSING PAYROLL which only gave me the sensation of drowning in a sea of empty words. I am quite sure that there are those that have come to work to make my life miserable and they succeeded. This was my spring of despair, autumn of anguish and winter of discontent. It's slow murder, death in daily installments.

    The word around the campfire is that Kivi is Belly Up and from my experience I would have to say it's true. I remember receiving only a couple hundred dollars in payroll and being told, "Ahhh yea, we do that so everyone can at least have some type of paycheck."

    DO NOT!! WORK FOR KIVI!! YOU WILL NOT GET PAID!! YOU WILL NEVER SEE THE ORIGINAL INVOICE TO THE SHIPPER!! THEY STEAL YOUR WAGES AND THAT'S JUST THE BEGINNING!!
