When do I get to see .70 a mile OTR?

"Free" healthcare.

I bet you pay a butt ton more in taxes for that "free" service and get to enjoy long waits for specialty care. Meanwhile, I pay about $300/year for my family health plan. I'd rather pay $300 and have great care than to pay an additional $10,000 in taxes for waiting lists.

 

Lmao if everything is so perfect for you...why even start a thread like this.

 

I didn't start it...

 

Then why even reply to me in the first place.. have nothing better to do, and no other way to express jealousy right....must suck working for low pay in MN thinking $25 is a decent wage.

 

I never said I work for $25.

You make an awful lot of assumptions and lash out when wrong, don't you?

 

I never said that you said you work for $25, I'm assuming you work for less than 25 lol.

N yeah I'm a violent person by nature so lashing out is common right or wrong. Good day safe travels.

 

Been running 4 weeks now for a small reefer carrier paid by percentage that has been averaging out to $0.72 a mile for me so far. Haven't ran a 70 yet with less than 3,400 miles. Dispatching has been great. Customers they have are easy to deal with mostly pre-loaded shippers and live unload receivers. Governed at 68. Only negative thing I'd have to say so far about this company is their trucks don't have APUs. They give you a bonus for keeping idle under 35% or something and speed under 65mph but I just let it run. The bonus only equates to something like $100 every two weeks. I'm not sweating for that.

 

Not with that attitude, Dave! If your favorite phrase is “OSHA!? Oh Sh**!” you can get that route done in 8. I bet Jeff Bezos would say the same thing.

 

I am paid a combo of mileage and hourly and earn about 11 grand a month.
Equates to around $43 per hour but if converted to mileage is probably well over a buck and a half per mile.
Not all jobs are created equal.
