10 or 11 cents a mile; you're also getting paid that when the other guy is driving and you're sleeping. Depending on a persons circumstances in life, sometimes you take what you can get for a new beginning. When someone gives you a hard time about the company you drive for, ask, "OK, will your company hire me?" If the answer is NO, then say, "Then why are you giving me advice about something you know absolutely nothing about?"
As for automatic transmissions; I've been a driver for a long time & I'll take automatic over standard. Not everyone feels the same.
When you're on a curvy narrow mountain road with a load of acid sloshing behind you, it's nice to let the automatic do the upshifting & downshifting for you while you concentrate on driving.

That is still just 22 cents a mile for all truck miles. Most respectable team companies pay 40-50 cents to the truck. Sounds like this outfit is the epitome of a bottom feeder. I guess if you have to earn your experience somewhere and no one better will hire you...... -
Ya I have to go with them because I have a first offender felony on my record that won't be off for a little bit. Just a stupid fight at a party pretty much. I'm 25 figured hell if they are willing to hire me that's great. It will get me some good driving exp to put on my next resume when my record is sealed and give me a chance to prove I am a courteous, dependable driver . Plus beats sitting on the couch watching my gut grow making 0 cpm. They can take advantage of me all they want for the time being I just want to be driving a truck and earn my stripes. I will bust my ### for this company if they hire me and any other company.
