    I think that's a fair deal, assuming of course that it includes you leasing them a truck for free.

    Not with "plus FSC". You'd come out a little better than a company driver at least.

    You post this junk in a public forum, then deny any knowledge of the industry. Problem is, is says 3 yrs experience in your profile. Which is it???
    Fair cut of $1.10 a mile? A fair cut would be double. I am leased to a carrier and pull their trailer, their authority, and so on, and did $2.44 all miles last year. Loaded, empty, going to the store, heading home, and so on.
    $1.10 a mile....Give me a break, then you want to skim off the top as well? Funny.
    I moved here in 1999, and even back then Schneider paid more than that a mile.
    You sir are simply ludicrous, and should be treated as such. I would start learning Spanish, Russian, Polish, and so on, as those are the only folks that would even look at that amount to run a truck.

    My hamster does all my math for me. He says .792 cpm + FSC + free truck = company driver pay after fuel, ins, etc and misc expenses. Hamsters are always right, aren't they? :biggrin_25523:
