    How much of that "Union Wage" goes to pay overweight cigar-smoking thugs to keep the otherwise unemployable employed?

    Line drivers for FedEx Freight get .69/mile in my area plus drop/pick, detention, fuel pay, .05 more for triples, and hourly if they end up working the dock (in some case). I used to work there, have friends that still do.

    A high rate is meaningless without the miles to run. Someone running 2500 miles a week is making $150 more at 30 cpm than a person running 1200 at 50 cpm.

    No Truck Driver's in 2017 should be making less than .50cpm......many Companies pay less than .50cpm..... Companies that care about their drivers pay base rate of .50cpm and up, but you have to sit down and find them... Drivers that have minor CSA scores has to except these low paying Miles to get hired. If you can find a trucking Company that pays .50 cent a mile and over stay with them.

    I have to say UPS parcel. The linehaul guys pulling LCV is over .72cpm+ My friend who's works there for 15years pulled in 91k as a Non CDL package Van driver (guy who delivers your package to your house) this year. Also he's not a motivated working guy either . Try's to do bare minimum if he can lol.
