    Personally, I think mileage pay should be illegal!

    Approximately 1700 per week. Just perfect. The only way it could be better was if I was to stay home and get paid the same. You've got to love working for a good company. I know I do.

    Does the OP know there's more to it than just miles per week? How about mileage pay and home time. It's called the big picture. Here's my big picture,

    3000 miles p/w
    Home every 5 days for at least a reset
    .39 per mile
    Complete affordable health/dental coverage


    To me the health coverage and home time are the most important factors for me.

    JohnBoy,

    Stop kidding yourself !!!!

    Why do think all these crappy bottomfeeders have no problems filling their seats ??

    Do you not realize that 4000miles at .25 is so much better than..........

    3000 miles at .39......sheeeesh !!!!!!!!

    It's called the new math ..I guess !!!!!!!

    My point exactly. I don't work for a bottom feeder company, the last time I did it was called CR England back in 1983 when they weren't near as bad as they are today. There's more to this than just major miles per week at .25 per mile. For me it's home time. After 25+ years of doing this I'll take being home every week over 4000 miles per week anytime......time to go for a swim in the pool with the 2 Labs.
