    I have been unable to find my tax information, but if I remember correctly my gross was somewhere around 30g last year. When I find the correct paperwork I will give an exact amount.

    This is my first post but I been with FFE since May, I did a few weeks with a trainer and went solo first week of June, it's definitely been an adventure, but the company isn't that bad, I guess that's hit or miss though, I've been lucky enough to have not had any payroll issues, the miles have been decent, and the one time they didn't have anything for me they actually sent me a message telling me so, then 3 hours later I was back on the road taking over a load from a driver who was in the shop, every company has its ups and downs, but for the most part I can't really think of anything to complain about with FFE

    Every company has its share of crap, the reason I chose FFE was because I figured the lack of information meant nobody was really complaining, and I don't regret my decision at all, I'm lovin' it out here, fancypants are you gonna be otr or an ltl driver?
     
    fancypants Thanks this.

    My opti-idle stopped working but I don't wanna get it fixed because ever since it stopped working I've been able to idle all-night, good luck and keep me posted on how you like it, and when you go to the chicago terminal try and stay outta the strip club in front of the drop yard!
