Are any of the job listings legitimate?

A company owned by Ukrainians?????
I would steer clear of those Chicago based Eastern European owned outfits.
I can’t believe you can’t find nothing in California?? As far as refers, there are a lot of no touch and dedicated outfits.
As been said, the good ones don’t need to advertise.

 

Why would your paycheck drop... you still have to pay taxes on 1099, just not up front. At the end of the (or year) it's all the same, no?
I do feel it's a government overreach. If the drivers and company's are happy, stay out of it.

 

So work 70 hours a week where you are and problem solved is what I am reading. If you need $2,000 plus a week. Change your status on your w4 to married or whatever and claim 99 allowances.I know the new W4 doesn't look the same as an older one. Find an older W4 and hand that to your employer. They don't send it to the IRS either way. Its only used for someone in payroll to use intuit payroll or do manual labor in calculating your taxes each pay period.

 

@Tourlouper --

If you really want the BIG bucks....given the conditions that you've requested above....and to also avoid the booby traps that the 1099 companies will give you.....you might find the following in your price range--IF you consider team-driving:

This right here is sound advise. I just spent the past six months finding my new home. And the above is exactly true. They don’t advertise because they don’t have to. If they do it’s to screen a dozen applicants before they pick one. Everyone where I’m at now has been here for years! And by the way, OP, yes, I’m actually making about $2000 weekly. I didn’t believe it at first, but I’ve gotten my first few checks. Ask around, talk to drivers, write down the companies you notice out on the road that catch your attention and don’t advertise 24/7, etc. it takes a bit of work, but they are out there.

 

Check out S&S in Grand Forks, ND. I ran with them from TX. They're not a bad co. and run Kenworths. I left for better $ but they raised the pay and have a guarantee now.
