Getting a percentage instead of flat rate

In my experience the smaller the load size, the more it is needed (generally).

Another interesting example is full truckload produce that is time critical but not especially high-value. It's exclusive use in that the entire truck is dedicated to the load and time critical because the produce will spoil if not quickly delivered. In that sense, is a load of lettuce an expedited load?

I suppose it is!

If the smaller it is the more it's wanted...wish that were true...

It's quality, not quantity.

I think that companies should pay the driver which ever way pays more. Per mile or a % that would be a transparent company. Pays more to the driver

Your thinking outside the box. I like that. What if an small, new, up and coming company paid that way? As they grew they would/might have to change their pay to the current model but could they make it?

I don't think that is ever gonna happen I'm not sure anyone would give more than they have to its a good dream , when I make more I give a bonus to my guys but I still have to make up for loss and I don't believe for a moment that the big guys would ever adopt that theory
