[QUOTE="Meonthenet, post: 1585665, member: 57973"] I figured before I came I would make around $22 to $24 average. I've been averaging $24. On the road $27+/-, drop and hook $17.7. I know I can't make it on hourly alone. The mileage pay makes the difference. When I started they told me I would get mileage and hourly and my figures was close. I'm on the plus side of my figures. I was hired as a fulltime road driver. If they told me I would only get hourly ($17.7), I wouldn't have left my old job, because I know I can't afford to work for $168.15 a day. I figured when I came here I would take a 25 to 33 percent annual pay cut for a couple years. I figured I could get by for a couple years. I never thought I would take a 50+ percent cut. I'm not 21 living in my mom's basement. I've been driving for 24 years. I have a big house, mortgage, car, kids. I can't make it on $17.7 alone. I need the mileage. The AM needs a city driver, he says I have no choice. My choice is simple, be a hourly city driver until I'm homeless with no credit, or get another job and keep my home and my family together and happy. [/QUOTE]
