That was the bottom line, and the reason why there wasn't a forth month. :wink:

I tried Covenant once, many years ago....one of the finest lines (lies) told was the mile story...you will make the miles, and the money. Sure, uh huh...older and wiser I am now, the recruiters make money getting you on, and some will tell you anything to get you there.

JB still calls me and I haven't driven since 2001. I tell them the same thing every time....if I want to drive, it will be OTR flatbed or heavy haul, no vans, no docks, no short lines, no slip seating, no joke, and why do you still call me when you know and I know that I will never work for you?

I have to say that I made very good money with JB but they are scam artists when it comes to taxes.
1. Don't take the perdium or you will pay big time next tax year.
2. Claim 0 on your w-4 and you will still pay when you file.
The first year that I drove for them I made close to $50,000 and they paid only $5500 in taxes during the year. I claimed 1 and no perdium. Even with my wifes income and all of our deductions we still paid $1000 when we filed.
This year we were originally going to get back $1300 until we figured in the w-2 for JB for 2.5 months and now we are getting back $825 and i claimed 0 on my w-4 for those 2.5 months. JB only took out 8% for income tax. They save a small fortune by making the drivers pay the extra when they file their taxes.
Their perdium amount exceeds the amount allowed by law and new tax laws will require you to forfet your deduction and make you pay the IRS at the end of the year.
