Magnum ltd - fargo, nd

And have you gone into the office for a face to face meeting? After all you were just in Fargo when I was last there... When Chad called you for your review did you share your displeasure? It was your right to.

Look for a better fit or change the program, just complaining to us won't change it, I mean we can offer sympathy but hey can't pay your bills with that...

 

Just spoke to him last week. He seems to think my miles are acceptable (but his include ghost miles). @Jubal3 is on the money when he says that $750 net isn't an acceptable paycheck for an OTR driver. I spoke to a couple drivers a few weeks ago who moved from LTD to the line haul. Now they're making better money and home every night. And one has been here long enough to know the people in Op's before the current administration.

 

Ok time for plan B...we'll catch ya at your next gig...

 

Not likely, but thanks for the thought. When I leave here, I go incognito.

And you're right, complaining on here does no good...what potential driver would believe that there are no unhappy drivers at Magnum. If I can keep one person from making the same mistake I did, then it's worth the effort.

 

750 net after 2 weeks? I'm sure you're healthcare comes out but That's something I would've looked into before I came here.

 

Funny, I know a couple of guys in line haul who say the opposite.

 

$750/wk ($1500 per check, before any 'living on the road' money) there are weeks that my wife see's just over $1000 deposit, and I limit my spending drastically.

 

With your financial concerns, I'd recommend you break your own rule, and return to Crete. By your own admission, 60k was almost a given.

 

My 60k days there were before the great recession. My last years there were spent trying to stay above the low to mid 50's range, and spending 325-330 days a year on the road. Honestly, before I stoop that low, I would grow my hair out long, roll around in the driveway to get good and dirty, then stand at the end of an exit ramp with a crutch and a 'will work for food' sign...in a dirty, torn Crete or Poly hat

 

@supersnackbar have you ever spoken to Tribe? I understand that you may be done with reefer, but they have a good rep and only hire experienced drivers.
