As far as the "shaving miles" thing. It just isnt true. We pay our drivers rand Mcnally miles and we charge our customer rand mcnally miles. You were always paid for every mile we charged our customer.
And there lies the problem. As far as the "shaving miles" thing. It just isnt true. We pay our drivers rand Mcnally miles and we charge our customer rand mcnally miles. You were always paid for every mile we charged our customer.
You cut the miles for your customers so your customers will be happy. However, you also cut the pay for the driver taking the load at the same time. Here is an example:
The load by Rand McNally program would have paid 1000 miles. However, to be nice to the customer, you cut him a break in the rate, and give him 900 miles for the bid.
Going by what you stated by drivers being paid by what you charge the customer, you just SCREWED the driver out of 100 miles before he ever gets into the driver seat to start the truck. On top of that, we can count on Rand McNally being off as much as 10%, according to orientation. Some the drivers get written up when they go over that 10%varience. So at this point, the driver is not only out of 10% of the trip pay, but he is also out of varience too boot.
This practice is a big part of why I'm disgruntal. But go ahead, and tell these drivers why this is OK.
One more thing. I save EVERYTHING, even TripPaks, with every mile I was paid, and locations from pickup to delivery. You may argue with a disgruntal employees, but you can't argue with your own paperwork. :twisted: :twisted:
