I'll be near 300 miles over the "contracted" miles, and won't get paid for those miles. The DM said they never pay all the actual miles, only what was negotiated on the contract with the receiver/shipper. Sounds to me like a class action lawsuit waiting to happen.
FFE does not pay all the miles from start to finish

welcome to the REAL world of driving paid on mileage.
If you can get lucky, the miles will be closer. Most times you will be off 10% per paycheck.
Pull up your big girl pants and go drive some more. Been that way since forever.mgt1085 and Onetruckpony Thank this. -
Not forever. The times I was company driver, I was paid hub from when I started in '75 up until the mid 90's. As an o/o I was paid percentage until the early 00's.

Been that way since drivers started taking the scenic route to squeeze a few more mile off.

When I delivered new furniture we used single axle trucks. The guys at one company around here started taking bottle jacks with then, jack up one rear wheel, release the tractor brakes, put the truck in gear, then go to bed for the night.
Company caught on and moved the hubometer from the drive axle to the steer axle.
