Paycheck help

Well I signed up for the 5 on 2 off under the assumption I would be able to average in the 2200-2500 mile range once I talked to my DM I was told I would have to stay out longer in order to average those miles, which is fine. I came in thinking it would be like my last 2 regional jobs where I could do two loads and get like 1800-2200 miles (so the average length of my loads was around 1000 miles). I did 8 loads like in 6 days at IDS and got around 1800 miles. I talked to my DM and said I need longer loads in order to get what I need financially; I was also counting on the bonus cents per mile I would get averaging 2500 miles a week. After talking with my DM and getting planned 2 more loads it didn't seem like they were set up or wanted to do that. I'm not gonna do 8-10 loads a week to get 2500 miles. For me its aggravating as he ll to do that, doing that many loads adds a lot of extra unpaid time I'm using driving in cities/ waiting at shippers receivers and so on and stress.

 

Thanks for the replies everybody, I guess its the fuel that's messing with my paychk
