    A million dollars an hour. Oh, and I'll set my schedule 100% by coming in, doing a 15 minute pretrip, then a 15 minute post trip and go home. Sounds about what I'm worth. :)
    I might even grace the company by coming in tomorrow and working an hour or two. Gotta be able to pay off that McMansion I want. :)
     
    Oldironfan Thanks this.

    A salary with bonus' based on miles driven/yearly, time at company, and safety. Give me a solid benefits package and the ability to get home when I need to get home.... and I'll work for you till the day I die.
