    I could not upload one of my own "pay statements" from the company I work for from oct-nov run I did for 18 days with ~4 days "off" in between, if that matters. Gross was ~27, after fuel, insurance, blah blah it was 17k into my account. That's just one trip I usually do within month every month. Next trip in Doc was 12 days with 3 days off in TX, 9k net. Now? 500 a day is a good catch)

    To spend that much in fuel and permits I'm assuming you do some sort of oversize or specialized?

    :D

    Ok, my blah blah includes parking 250 a month, GPStab ELD 15 and some tiny things like phone, internet, house payment, new shoes and a dinner at Pho Thai,)

    And yes, that is a very decent month, even though I run half of what you do. I assume prorate is done once a year?)

    See that line that says Payroll Expenses folks? Somebody had to drive the truck, and until you have paid somebody, you do not have net.
