Cali running West to East I ave about 700 miles per shift so about $350. per shift I get paid a $1500. min for running round trip from So Cali to WA plus my pick and drops I get paid as I return and I turn in my Paperwork I can have as much home time as I like within reason. I usually stay home 1 or 2 days depending on me, But I like making money so I don't take advantage of taking off. let me know if you have any more questions, Hope it helps.

","text":"Sure, but what if now I told you it was daily picking up in RI going to NY City, 9 stops all of which you have to unload. Still sound good? I don’t think so. For me I wouldn’t do it for $1000/day. This is the type of stuff you run into. Like even on the job board post on here, overloaded with Schneider. Why? Because they can’t keep anybody, they lure people in with big promises and then drop the hammer on all their lies once you actually get in their truck.","replyToPid":61869}

Like you’re situation you aren’t running super hard, I’m sure it is a lot easier dealing with the same place all the time and all those benefits could easily cost $2000/month for someone out of pocket. Plus you get decent regular home time. That’s a huge plus."}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Appreciate the advice. I definitely hear all that you are saying and am factoring it into my decision. That’s why I’m asking this question. I know it’s going to cost more than just what I pay the driver and I want to pay well enough that I can get someone good, so trying to see how what I’d be able to pay will compare with what folks get elsewhere.","replyToPid":0}
