    Most "companies" will never treat a driver so well. Then they cry about not being able to find one.

    Personally I start off at 50% for 6 months then once they hit that mark and we both understand each other I cover it 100%.
    ( the reason I do this is to make sure I have people that want to stick with me )
     
    dztruck and Lonesome Thank this.

    I would like to clear the air up.

    I came to the US to start a company with zero contracts and not knowing a single person.

    It’s not all butterflies and rainbows but I’ve been treated like garbage from a handful of companies I’ve worked for and I swore I wouldn’t do that.

    If that means I have to get in a truck to do an OTR job to pay for employee benefits if gladly do that.

    50% of the amount they get charged as per that chart I posted and the drivers age.

    That’s just health though, I cover dental and vision 100% from day one.
