Coastie Going O/O at last

Well then.....he's due!!!

 

Not knocking Coastie, I do hope he finds his niche. Nice truck by the way GEARS.

 

Thank you.

My sentiments as well for Coastie.

 

You'll CLEAR $5,000 per month profit after expenses and having someone else drive it?

Gee... all of a sudden, I think my truck's available for a gig like that!

 

Not going to happen unless its ona special deal hauling super secret freight. If thats the case you better put a gag order on the driver so he doesn't tell anyone what kind of money he's making...
As for the 1099, it isn't illegal unless what your gonna put the driver on someone is gonna tell him what to do. Coastie if you've done your homework you'd know paying all that your gonna pay for a driver not on a 1099 is gonna be painful, unless as stated above your hauling big $$$$ stuff.

 

Yeah when i heard clearing $5000 i rolled my eyes, :smt120 but it depends on the loads his has coming. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and if Coastie comes through I will be one jealous #######. Maybe he has a future as a broker.

 

What I don't understand is if you can clear $5,000 with a driver in it why not drive it yourself and clear all of it?

 

Things that make you go "Hmmmmm"

 

I think the physical aspect of the job is just getting too much for Coastie - hence hiring help to get the work. People like to think of truck drivers as steering wheel holders (and unfortunately alot of them are) - but it's not the case. Anytime someone would like to work my hopper they'd be in for a workout in quick order, and the lesson would be learned.
