The pay variance you are exp., welcome to container hauling. I know O/O's in my area that can go for months on end making $4,000/wk to the truck, then suddenly the bottom will fall out and they'll be lucky to do $1,500/wk. It also depends on how the company you are leased to pays, and what the rates are. In area, most O/O's are actually lease operators, most getting 72% ot 78% to the truck, the company I work for (I'm a company driver) we require our O/O's to be independents, own insurance, authority, etc., they rely on us for SCAC codes for access to the ramps and depots. I don't recall if it's 90% or 95% to the truck. Until this past August, our 3 O/O's were working the same hours as us company drivers, 5 or 6 days a week, 10 to 12 hrs every day. In late August it started to get slow, so for the last month and half, it's been variable, some weeks they might work 3 days, some weeks they might work 5 days, and it might be 5 hrs a day or it might be 8 hrs a day, it can vary that much.

As much as I don't do Chicago, I find your statement amazing. There you are in one of the greatest trade routes from the time of our Pioneers and Beef unable to get anything other than Container? Hmm. -
