    ugh! thats pitiful @#@* pay, get a real timeline on the raises in a written offer, otherwise,...hmm
    JB must have bid that account knowing without hazmat drivers come cheap. thats why was saying Chicago Inter Modal is about the only real payer on dedicated crap..####..this pay with inflation drops one down to 1998 levels..wow! get in on a tanker job somehow, something non haz at first.. it'll atleast keep better quality food on the table,..yikes

    They pay very well uasually they pay higher than the competing carriers so they can get better drivers so if you make so much at jb account x then the guys working for a competing carrier are making less .
