[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 965472, member: 33696"] OK, so I was checking out the craigslist ads & found a contractor hiring drivers & paying them by the hour with OverTime??? [ATTACH]6768[/ATTACH] this is inline with what i was getting at the temp agency during peak season:blink: the pic was cropped incorrectly, so i'll copy/paste: then the pic i included should read ok... ------------------------------------------------------ I don't live in that area, but I was intrigued on how he can afford this without eating into his profit margin??? also, the OT statement he made: (about 50% of our drivers average 10-20 hours overtime on certain weeks) and the bonus pay of $500/ monthly for safety and customer service depending on performance? I think that's the contractor's bonus and not the drivers'... since I never received such a thing from my previous contractors eventhough i put on my green/purple cape and give excellent service. --------------------------------------------- If you know this contractor in the hub/ terminal, please tell him to get in touch with me. Thanks! I know you guys have a gag-order to tell if something's profitable or not with these "businesses" so PM me if you want. My last contractor didn't want to say how many routes out of his 15 drivers covers his expenses... (he knew that i wanted to be an owner/op in the past ~ heck, i still see a few single-route contractors in the 2 terminals i've been working at). He also offered me an hourly pay, but I declined because i told him i'll be cutting into his profits too much if you try to pay like EXPRESS... [ATTACH=full]6768[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
