    We get paid hub miles. No routing solution, no mandatory fuel stops other than authorized stops that the company gets a discount but if you need you can fuel anywhere that takes EFS. I don’t abuse it.

    Even if you are getting paid pc short miles, if you are getting that kind of difference in miles, then you are running way out of route, or they are cheating on the miles. There on average is not a lot of difference between pc short and pc practical, and most times practical is within just a very few miles different from hub miles. Depending on where the shipper and reciever is located, it will at times pay a few more miles than driven miles.
    Pickup a copy of pc miler and you can check you routes and their miles.
