    Didn't you start a thread on Sunday saying you make $800 a week? Paid a daily rate of $ 150 a day four 4 days then $200 for the 5th day. Some members called you out on being full of **it. Guess they were right about you.

    let me explain, $150 and $200 every other day. i do 4 farms day one, day two i do 5 farms. example
    monday might be 5 farms or stops- $200
    tuesday would be 4 farms- $150
    wendsday would be 5 again, $200
    thursday would be 4 again $150
    friday, 5 stops $200

    i hope that clarifies things. what i said was correct but my wording might have been off. i hope this clarifies it. how and WHY it works like this, my first trailer or load is ALWAYS the SAME two farms, but my 2nd trailer is made of farms that ONLY make enough milk for a stop every other day.

    i work 6 days per week and route pays $1020 per week since the $150 and $200 alternate. the above was just an example to explain it better. if things go well the pay is actually not too bad, its when i get stuck waiting that i find it starts to stink.

    i work 8-10 hours per day NORMALLY when thing go as planned and go home so i get a fairly decent sleep.

    If you see a truck delivering to a Raceway or Racetrac pull in and ask a current employee. They’ll be able to share a lot more info and you should be able to get a good read about the company from their attitude. Sometimes you have to take it with a grain of salt and sometimes the employee will display what type of people the company hires. Also you can check online reviews from Indeed.com. The Port Arthur, location had mixed reviews. A common complaint was the lower compensation.
     
    Lepton1 and Thull Thank this.
