I think that "If it doesn't pay enough don't run it" is how this new program got started. Those contract/discount customers that never paid a fsc were not getting thier loads ran. From the sounds of things, not to many are fooled by this new way of thinking. I think that the "old" way of things...

I started in the T/T and moved to the S/T and the backing up was all wrong at first. No pivit point in a S/T, so you will have it easier when backing the non piviting bus. With anything it takes time and practice, don't rush any turn, when backing (I'm sure yoou will learn this) remember...
