    Should I hang in there or move on to another Carrier

    You have to much baggage, find a less demanding career...the issues you have are way to much to be handled here. You need to find a driver that has been or is about broke to learn what not to do and then a successful one to figure out what you should do. I don't care if you have been with a...

    What Do The Drivers Want In A Carrier

    It costs me $.75 per mile for the truck alone and when you add in my bills at home it costs me $1.00 per mile to move my truck. Right now the company that I drive for do not pay dead head until you have traveled 100 miles...so it costs me $100.00 to pick up their freight, and if that is not...

    Signing On With Multiple Carriers

    Don't hold me to this, but I was told by my current company that who ever you contract with for that load the driver runs under that companies authority and if he hauls under his company name he hauls under his own authority...just has to keep changing signs for each company he hauls for.

    Site seeing and log books

    When I drove for Bolt Express their EOBR had an option where you could drive off duty for 2 hours...this was so the driver was not trapped in one location during their 34 hour restart. The company that I drive for now does paper logs and after I unload my time is my time and I don't log...

    Run for yer lives...abandon ship...Fedex drivers scream

    Can't call you a liar, but just don't believe it...you are not running enough loads, 2.2 per week average or enough miles, 2200 +/- per week. Additionally you speak nothing of expenses. If what you say is actually true by all means share your secret to success for those of us slowly going broke.
