[QUOTE="Artee, post: 5753634, member: 24351"] So you are saying that there is not one ground driver in the US that does not get any kind of PTO or offered some lousy expensive medical plan from their contractor? You don't think there are any ground drivers that are making $30? I would say you need to educate yourself. There are many many drivers that get paid $180-210/day and put their 6-7 hours in and go home. They like coming in, busting out a condensed deliver route and getting home. Fits their lifestyle and the money is OK for them. What is not ok for them is being asked to sit around another couple hours a day and do pick ups for that same daily rate. The rate either goes up or they are off to find something else. They have no desire to be like an express driver that cannot straighline and has to do pickups and break off from their route to handle oncalls. [/QUOTE]
