    Thanks, it sounded like it but they don't say exactly and I can't find it on the website. I applied anyways. I want to see what that hourly is. I'm guessing false advertisement and 22-24 hr if it's even a real listing

    Didn't you already do a dollar store delivery job...earlier?

    A little bit of deja-vous here...maybe? o_O

    Yep but I didn't make any where near what was advertised and that was also reefer and unloading that freezer sucked.

    That pay was miles, on duty, and empty trailer. Usually made around 500 bucks a trip which took 2 days and I was getting 2 trailers a week, but it was supposed to be 3

    You do realize....

    ...the suggested pay range in the above CR England ad is such....at least partly becuz of....the markedly higher costs of living in that area?

    Yes it's right next to Portland which is crazy expensive but I'm sure I could pull off living in the truck on that account, I doubt they want it back often

    Well I was doing some math and heres what I reverse engineered, using round numbers

    132,000/52=2539
    2539/85=30

    So if it is $30 an HR with OT I would probably be happy to do it. It is what is. Dollar accounts are everyone's first recommendation right?

    But they would have to let me keep the Nevada license because I'm definitely not switching it Portland
