Great picture! I worked for two different contractors out of two different hubs from 2001 to 2006. The quality of driver just kept getting worse and worse. I could tell story after story about Ground drivers, things that I still can't believe but I'll just stay quite! LOL!

Maybe I read your posts wrong on my hauling doubles thread.But I thought you had already started this job and thought u was making 50cpm solo.I didn't know this is a team operation.What math are you doing,you'll be making roughly $625.00 a week.That is what YOU WILL be making.You'll make 25 cpm which is standard with any company and teams,the contractor was going to pay me 38 cpm solo and you thought that was too low,lol.Which you're right but there was other things that didn't add it.So when you think about it,this contractor isn't any different then the one I was going to drive for but after thinking strongly about it with the help of you all on my thread I turned down the job.Good luck and please keep us up dated.

spectacle13 and X-Country Thank this.

50cpm team which is 25 cpm solo which is 2500 per driver if both do their share of driving which is 25 cpm X2500=625.00.But this contractor is splitting the pay to how many miles total.So time will tell just how much the op will be making every week.I wish her the best of luck.

And why haven't you been keeping up with my thread,lolhttp://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...d-truckers-advice/274109-hauling-doubles.html.Contractors aren't nearly as picky.I was going to drive for a fed ex contractor.All I needed was a doubles endorsement and shown how to hook up and unhook.
Giggles the Original Thanks this. -
Hopefully the op doesn't get a lazy driver.
X-Country Thanks this. -
Passed my doubles/triples test today on the first try.
Unfortunately I am sick with pneumonia so wont be starting till next week sometime.
I clarified this with the hiring manager and it is .50 cpm that I, myself make. The other driver makes more than I do because he has a lot more experience.
No I havent started yet. was waiting on my bg check and mvr to come back, which it did yesterday.
Now that I have passed my doubles/triples test and have my endorsement all thats left is my roadtest next week, orientation and paperwork and I will be set.
Had you bothered to actually R-E-A-D you would see that it says "Team Driving"....thats T-E-A-M.S M D Thanks this. -
