    FRE offers drivers $300.00 as an extra incentive to stay out between 12/21/12 and 01/04/13 and will pay you as such as long as you basically don't screw up anything on the loads. They also pay $20.00 for you Christmas dinner if consumed on the road. It is the same thing they have done every holiday season. It may not seem like much to some people but in this economy it is nice that they offer any incentive at all.

    Picked up at New Albany, MS on the 5th. It delivers today in Waterloo, IA at a sofamart store. Supposed to be home for home time this weekend, just waiting on my pre plan for that.
    I've been here a month, but so far I'm very happy. Sure there are small issues, but nothing is perfect. I was in business for 2 1/2 years with a guy I thought was a friend. We had our authority and 3 trucks and trailers. Problem is, he couldn't stop spending money. Also, he eventually decided it was his company, not ours. Found out later he would yell and cuss at drivers if they wouldn't run illegal and dodge scales for him. By comparison, this is nearly heaven. At the end of the day, each person has to decide where they want to be. I could have gone a lot of other places, and I chose to come here.

    P.S. I'll be out here on Christmas and New Years this year because I decided to. I don't have a life, wife, kid, or dog. If you do, merry Christmas. I'll be using that $300 to buy myself a cool Christmas present.

    Don't think he is talking about you Dark_Majesty_06. We do have the few coat tail riders here but what company doesn't. Yes some just say yes to everything thing so the office thinks if they can do it why not you? Not everyone will run illegal to get something done with out rescheduling the load. I for one will have them reschedual the load or just not take it. I don't believe anyone here on this forum is a but kisser or yes sir guy. But all you can do is work hard follow the rules and get the loads their when you can. If it is going to be late just make sure it wasn't the lack of trying on your part.
