Prime Inc. has no loads?

3 weeks ago $1000 2wks ago $100 last week $100.

no trainees for teaming makes it hard to make money. solo is bad. seems only way to make it with the way things are is to team.

 

^^^ Wow 100 bucks for an entire week. Are you company or L/O

 

L/O ya sucks right now. but so far llooking good this week.

 

hi i am going to orientation next wednesday also.

 

I guess you just don't read the writing on the walls here, or are just plain desparate... whew! Good luck. You're going to need luck - and a whole lot more.

500 - 1000/week. Lots of sitting, lots of deadhead, and very very little pay. Try making your lease payment and eating at the same time... he he he - you'll be losing LOT'S of weight whether you want to or not! Find another line of work, at least until the recession is over! You'd be better off begging on a street corner than working for Prime - or anyone else as a newbie for that matter right now.

I just cant understand why you would lease a truck especialy if YOUR NEVER EVER going to own it....to many other Lease options else where....once you completed your lease you own the truck.

 

Right now there really are not many more options.

 

I honestly havent seen one person around here lately advocating someone going lease...

You guys are just trying to stir up trouble... 90 percent of the recent posts in this section FROM Prime drivers are myself and Ironpony... we are both Company Drivers...

Ive been pretty honest about my experiance, even posted some numbers (again I am Company).. and honestly stated that I do alright because my life is pretty low maintence right now bill wise and all I am doing is saving what I can and seeing the country... Ive made it pretty clear that I couldnt see myself supporting a family out here with what I am making...

Risk vs. rewards for leasing... low risk vs low reward going company...

So take your lease debate "baiting" to the thread "Prime's lease deal. The math gets done" http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...e/66145-primes-lease-deal-math-gets-done.html

oh wait a minute... that one has kinda died lately... need to get your kicks elsewhere huh?

 

One last thing.... we are all struggling to do what we can and make what we can out here in this economy... I have a few friends leasing at Prime that are doing ok, some even say great. I also know one or two that have failed.

Its hard to explain... It seems to be a combination of things that either drag you down or help you succeed... Unfortunatly some things have worked for some and the some of the same things have not for others... and sometimes it just seems like luck to me from where I am sitting...
