When you can realize that just because I have a different perspective than you and that I am merely pointing out that this is a Big world we live in. Not that you are wrong, you may understand what I am saying and start to look at how you can see the world from a different point of view. Hopefully less negative and one that has you making more money than you currently are. -
I do take those long vacations that most company drivers would never be allowed, Companies arent paying leased drivers anymore in most cases than the crap rates they post on central dispatch.
Do i think companies like URS owned by Carlyle group is getting rich ? They reported record profits last quarter, How many URS drivers would you say last quarter was the best in their career's including your 1%. -
What is it you are driving? A 3 car wedge? I have never seen you post any of your loads. Maybe if you did some of the more experienced professionals, other than me since I only recruit now days, who actually make good money could tell you what you are doing wrong. Maybe then you could start making great money. Or you could just keep complaining. I bet on more complaining from you as so far that is all I have seen you post. See if you can count all those units on the bottom picture. You won’t do that on a wedge!
When is the last time you saw a recruiter do these loads? Try to be honest with your reply, I know it is hard for you. Lol
You do realize I am not completely serious at my poking on you? I would probably still help you load one day when I go back to driving. For now the cushy office job is working better and the pay is double my owner operator pay. You wouldn’t believe it so I won’t even post it. -
I think you pick out of my posts your versions, Because you post a two week settlement that is less than i did in the past two weeks and somehow your a superhauler and i need help lol . If i make that on a wedge i would guess you had one arm. And somehow because rates suck you assume i hate my job, where did i say that. I have more freedom than 95% of drivers . And i talk to the same people you refer to and most think they are getting shafted on rates. Your blue skies and sunshine forecast couldnt be of someone doing this job in the current.
It doesnt really matter but im in a 14 pete. High rail. But dont worry it wont be me if someone is asking how to load. Half the o/o are pulling empty trailers 30% of their miles and arent being paid enough when loaded. Its laughable you mention centurian because two weeks ago at VW they had a driver loading dropping in the same area i was going had a load probaly overweight and was getting 800 less . But im sure he was lying to make me feel better ..right. In general leased on or company arent getting paid more for a load than if i call urs and say i need a load out of the KIA plant In west point. I know contract rates are probably 30=45% higher than what united road even pays their own drivers. Someone has to pay for you office personnel. -

I notice on your truck Hansen & Adkins is that who you make that big money at the desk with ? I would imagine pulling 6 figures there at a desk is cake since they post the lowest rates of all major carriers. Maybe they do pay o/o better than urs . I think they are the only major carrier i have never moved one car for. its been a while but few years back i did talk to them about leasing on but they really didnt convince me it was worth it. Im sure you are a better recruiter.

Im sure this is biased and likely based on drivers that were slackers nonprofessional and were forced out.lol
This is average and the reality. No matter o/o company driver or joe shmo 3 car wedge. You dont screw workers. In 1987 i made 90k delivering beer , i have to work harder now delivering cars ? You remind me of the brother that owned the beer distributor he had 3 forklift stops a day and made 135k driving a beer truck in 1987.
