Message:: [QUOTE="MYSTYKRACER, post: 10647160, member: 259510"]I had an I/C tell me basically this same thing last week. He was explaining that's how they get paid and some times it can be anywhere from 4-8 weeks before they get paid for a load, it just depends on how fast the billing works it's way through.  He was telling me that it looked to him like Heniff wants to go to that kind of structure w/ the company drivers as well. If this is the case, and once again no one in management is being clear about this which is utterly infuriating, it is completely untenable for a company driver who's used to having some idea of what they'll be getting paid week-to-week based on what work they've done and subsequently sets up their personal finances based on some sense of consistency.  To me it sounds like Heniff might be having some inner cash flow issues if they have to wait until they get paid in order to pay their drivers.  That's a very hand-to-mouth kind of system whereas Superior never seemed to have no problem paying it's drivers within a week of completed work ( provided you turned in your paper work on time ) which would suggest they had a significant enough cash reserve to buffer payroll until they received payment from the customer.  In short, if I wanted to get paid like an I/C I'd go buy my own truck![/QUOTE]
