Werner paid me .24 cpm when i first started out, i did my 6 months and went up 12 more cpm driving for a fleet owner out of Chicago and i still would be if i have not bought my own ride...didnt have a reason to go anywhere else.
Ofcourse am gonna jump the ship if am gonna be better off over there, it only makes sence, thats a smart buisiness decision at its best, everyone in any field does it. Treat and pay your guys what they deserve and i bet your ass they wont leave you, WHY? There are ofcourse rotten apples in every bunch but this buisiness is shadyest one out there where everone lies their ass off just to get you behind that wheel.....
I've been in the business for 11 years. In that time, I've had 5 jobs. One of those jobs was for over 6 years.
Turnover is a plague on this industry, as it keeps wages down, and creates that artificial "driver shortage".
