[QUOTE="Rick Ross, post: 2906018, member: 51847"] In my area drivers split miles not pay. A driver gets about $.82 cents a mile after his 3rd year and a newbie gets poked at $.39 cents for their first year with a little extra pay for pulling doubles (like $.017). Run 5k miles and you will be paid your rate for half of them, makes no difference if you drove less or more than that amount, it's split down the middle and you are paid your rate for 2500 miles. You also get per diem paid at $.035 per mile for each driver, and TA time at your hourly rate while waiting on the yard, but you have to wait 2 hours before receiving pay on longest leg from your domicile...all other legs are paid from the moment you inbound. These numbers could be different in your area but are accurate in mine, I cover sleeper runs a occasionally. I've met quite a few sleeper team drivers who have little or almost no full-time seniority. In some places it's tough to fill all the sleeper bids because drivers are happy making $100k working hourly and being home every day. [/QUOTE]
