    Are you paid by the mile + drop/hook? Delay pay? I'm curious

    $28 hour all straight time
    $50 weekly bonus to show up
    $75 for Saturday
    $75 for Sunday
    $100 6 day bonus if you work

    By choice I’m off Tues/wed cause I wanted weekend bonus.

    70 hours week.

    I’ve worked a decent amount of 6 days but only a 8-10 hour linehaul only run.

    paid 15 min before and after your shift for pre trip. So avg about 72 hours week paid for 5 days. 82-84 for 6.

    I avg 1800 miles a week. And sit 5-6 hours a night in a sleeper napping waiting for my cut.


    Different contractors pay different way. Most is by the mile. Some pay to wait some don’t

    Well that's a pretty Dang good deal.. I talked to a fedex ground contractor many years ago and he wasn't paying much for mileage and definitely wasn't paying hourly for delays. I'm glad to see you're getting a good deal

    The funniest part of this exchange, is that there's an entire portion of the chart that says "Tax withheld" And this guy still made that comment.
    Jesus Christ why am I truck driver, just SMFH.

    That ain't bad at all for ground. That would actually be considered great for FedEx freight.
     
    LtlAnonymous and jtaran06 Thank this.
