    Have you every used a guy named Perry from Iowa as a driver recruiter? He's making some promises that sound good.

    last time was in march and I put an add in the newspaper and got 0 response. .... then I tried Craigslist and indeed got a couple of people but mostly window shopping I finally got my cousin to help me out . I pay on % ... 40 % after fuel and tolls works out to around 25 % of a long haul and more on short trips average around 50 cents a mile on longhauls .. I do a lot of short trips and a lot pay $1 or more a mile . good drivers don't have a problem getting 1500 for a 5 day week. .... my cousin did over 8500 for the month of June and 9000 for July ..... then I sold him the truck lol . the hospitalization seems to be the biggest problem right now . I do w2 as 1099 are a bad idea. do per diem and take out for hospitolization before taxes that saves everyone money ... but I am planning on finding a better plan for hospitalization
