QC does have a lot of work out there, so you shouldn't have trouble getting out.
I heard they were going mileage, are those numbers include the fuel surcharge?
Remember this, any time a company does something like a change from mileage to percentage or the other way around it ALWAYS benefits THEM more than you.

It's 1.05 loaded, .95 mt, plus the fuel surcharge.
As I said, the O/O's here don't like the change. I talked to one 17 year driver who considers it another experiment and he expects it to go away just like the previous such experiment.
Yeah, my plan is to get my feet underneath me and take it from there. There are some bugs I need to work off on my truck to have more confidence in it. I'm thinking of replacing some things that haven't broken just to be certain they don't break on the road.
I'm still not confident in loading and unloading, either. I learn by doing when it comes to mechanical stuff, and I still haven't pumped off by myself. It's all very easy, and yet there are a lot of costly mistakes you can potentially make. So, I have a ways to go to have the confidence I had pulling dry box. It'll be good to get through a lot of that before I really start looking at options.
