No more 1099 60/40

[Mike0000]

I have been doing 1099 60/40
for the past 8 months and truthful I can say that there is absolutely no money to be made in it I have drove both large Straight Trucks and cargo Van's as solo and teams

the best way to make money under that
Contract is to drive teams in large Straight Truck I do not recommend doing teams in
cargo Van's I see some companies are trying to do that like FedEx customs critical & Panther to all driver's who are
considering doing teams in cargo Van's trust me it's not worth it stay away from it

the reason why I say that there is absolutely no money to be made from
1099 60/40 reason one fuel costs
numbers two if you don't get a load or
any loads doing that week you will not get a paycheck that a fact there was times
when I shut down for a week and I didn't
even get paid or that matter if you only get one load doing that week you will only get paid for that one load

 

[RoadTime]

if you don't get a load or
any loads doing that week you will not get a paycheck

Correct. Were you expecting to get paid if you didn't get a load?

there was times
when I shut down for a week and I didn't
even get paid

You take off a week and surprised you didn't make any money?
Did you have some minimum guarantee of payment? I'm confused.

I didn't take off a week I ment to say I was
not getting any loads I was just sitting around not making any money there was times when I stay in one place for 5 days straight sometimes more than 5 days

The best way is to not 1099. Get yourself a union gig. Don't be a sucker.
