Maverick Driver general bs thread

And DON"T FORGET the enormous Middletown, OH terminal HAHAHA!!

 

he asked me what I thought about him doing it before he agreed to do it. I tried to steer him away from it til he got a bit more experience OTR but he agreed to it anyway. Good guy. If I remember correctly, he was in construction before trucking so good luck to him

 

Details about new performance based bonus program to be downloaded to MMS next week per qcom msg today.

 

Thank you very much for the compliment. It was a pleasure meeting you also.

 

Boys before we get our panties in a bunch over the new bonus system. One thing I do know J.C. is a very smart person he looks at things at all the angles. I'm not trying to be a company cheerleader by any means. But having dealt with John over the years I have learned to have great respect for the way he looks at things before they are implemented.

If the new system sucks I will be the first man complaining to him about it. But I do believe in a performance-based pay system. There's no reason that a driver that has been here for two years as a top performer makes less than a poor performing driver that has been here for 10.

From what I have heard they have ran the numbers and top-performing drivers will get a pay increase. Maverick has always been a fair and honest company to work for. That is why I am still here and like I say every day I set a new record for staying at one company.

When they roll out the new system I will give you my honest and unbiased opinion.

 

well said sir

 

Myself...I really like the idea of a performance based bonus....


I got a performance bonus from Schneider a few years back....$5,000, a performance bonus is the only bonus I've ever been able to get anywhere...seweran is right, drivers might as well give it the benefit of the doubt and see how they like the new system before getting all excited.

My guess is....good drivers will love it, lazy drivers will hate it.

 

Me being dedicated....it won't even apply to me.

 

There's a different one for the dedicated drivers according to the qcom message anyways. guess we'll all find out next week

 

No matter what they change it to, the performers will be compensated and like the MPG bonus, a driver doesn't have to get it. Stay above the company goal and keep your FMs happy and it'll be business as usual. As I stated earlier, if there's 6 criteria to be met for a 6 cent per mile increase for the following quarter and I only meet 4 of them, so be it. An extra 4 cents a mile on a paycheck such as the last two, mileage wise anyways, 1329 and 1898, would definitely be beneficial
