Drivers are not dropping fast, if a company has to have a signing bonus, then they need to review their company and its image.
Hourly over mileage. Maybe some day?

I believe paying by the hour would address the detention time,drivers would be getting for all the time they are working.

I put all my guys on Hourly on March 1st, I am paying them 22.00 across the board, whether that is loading, unloading, sitting in line at the truck wash, fueling, walking around an auction, pre trip etc.
So far, so good, they are grossing around the 1600.00 mark, (roughly an extra 150.00 per week) and I get a sense that my equipment is being taken better care of, and nobody is fudging their on duty/off duty time, I am also in return have not had a damage claim, or a dirty truck and guys are a lot more forgiving if we have a small wait time to add another piece to the load. I just hope it all evens out at the end of the year....................sevenmph, tinytim, Dave_in_AZ and 7 others Thank this. -
What about the time you spend waiting on a load after getting unloaded? What if that period of time turns into your ten hour break?skinnytrucker79 Thanks this. -

I can't believe how brainwashed truckers have become.They think they should only be getting paid when the truck is moving.That's like working at a factory and only getting paid when the assembly line is moving.
Canned Spam, sevenmph, Dave_in_AZ and 3 others Thank this.
