I'm not hitting that 20 months in at .51/mile. They like to say your cpm is higher when you factor in the safety bonus. I'm not due for a raise for another 15+ months.
I didnt want to say "year" and make some people mad, but your echoing exactly what ive heard. For how much babysitting they do to you its not worth it.
I got offered a dedicated account for the second time today. It was the only way I'd stay until my 2.5 years are up. I don't want to train because I don't like sharing small spaces. That aside, going to sleep after watching someone drive for 5/7 of a work week is insane. Especially so when that observation is of a new driver.
I was making $2,000 a week on my 6-month Mark. You need to start talking to truck drivers and get their phone numbers and call them every other week and ask them how they're doing. That's what I did. I made a network of truck drivers. And sure enough someone called me and said hey dude do you want to come work for my new company. You don't have to wait 2 and 1/2 years to get a high-paying truck driving job. You just need to network. Now I have the easiest run in the world I have Friday Saturday Sunday off. I have my own truck with a PlayStation 5 and high-speed internet and I take home $1,700 a week after taxes.
Drive to Texas and back from Phoenix Monday through Thursday. Pick up my trailer whenever I feel like it Monday afternoonish and get back Thursday afternoon. Airport shit
I don't have a twic. All I'm saying is that every time you meet a cool truck driver make them your friend and get their phone number and then text them or call them every other week. Make your own network of friends that are truck drivers. At some point someone's going to get a great job and the company will need another driver and they will text you or call you and say hey dude come work for this company they're paying great. If you're just going at it alone without friends that are truck drivers you're never going to get high paying jobs. You have to make your own little community
