Why is it so hard to pay a driver for the work he does?

I think the cmp + commision on the route is a good idea. It makes sure you get a paycheck, and also gives the driver an incentive to do a job well.

I use to work for southeast toyota in Jacksonville, FL. We got paid $4.75/hr to start. I was their for almost 2 years because it was steady work, and the better of the jobs Ive ever had plus benefits.

I suggested to my supervisor that it would be a good idea to pay every driver some money per car that they staged(Gas up, send to the proper shop, etc). Considering how much toyotas cost, 50 cents added to the price of each car was negligible, but would be a big impact on our paychecks, because we staged a TON of cars and trucks, per week.

I gave some ways to police the system in my letter, so none would be tempted to snag from a car the sticker(each staging of a vehicle was done by what the car had on it's manifest, and was taken off and placed on a sheet by the installer/stager/gaser on their board)

She gave it a thought, then put it aside, never to be heard about again. :roll:
