[QUOTE="deadman, post: 3879748, member: 76049"] Maybe there is something i'm missing here as i'm just an x driver but wouldn't it make more sense to find a solution advantageous to both parties? I understand the isp/contractor side of you get a raise when i get a raise but i also get the driver side of more volume equals more money and i want to be compensated for that. The contractor is taking all the risk in this business, the best solution ive found with my boss personally was to relieve some of the risk in exchange for more reward. ie my one year raise rather than a straight day rate increase was a per p/s rate above a threshold and a % of oversize package pay. in exchange i took a section off of a supplement driver who is currently in a panel van so we don't have to buy a new truck. This solution means if the company does well my pay increases more than what it would have on straight raise, and my boss mitigates some risk that if the company does poorly as well as saves some money if in the immediate term. Would appreciate if anyone here has ever done any agreements like this would let me know how it turned out. [/QUOTE]
