Have others heard .07 pay increase for Linehaul? also does that go across the board for all linehaulers or do the new guys just get a percentage of the raise?
None of our terminals have had the wage and benefits meeting yet so we don't know what our raise will be. What ever the raise is it will be across the board.Have others heard .07 pay increase for Linehaul? also does that go across the board for all linehaulers or do the new guys just get a percentage of the raise?
Nice, sure that isn't .007
07. cpm for linehaul, 35 cent for city is what I've heard from good sources.
Yeah, at just around .70 cpm ODFL would start bringing in o/o's and truckload companies to haul the freight they couldn't afford to pay their drivers to move. It'd be like UPSF, yet in green!
Ain't that the truth ...and the most positive thing I've ever read you say : ) also goes to say they could afford that OT everyone whines about, they just won't unless they're forced.I'm going to say it, OD makes so much money they could pay line .90 cpm and still earn more profit than all the LTL's. Everything we touch turns to gold. No one can top OD.
That's really gonna vary. 75-80k is reasonable assumption.I have been offered a linehaul position running wild and bagging out, I am just curious what kind of yearly income I should expect.
So can you tell me what the current linehaul rate is? I do appreciate it, I am in the middle of making a really tough decision on if I should take the position or stay where I am at.That's really gonna vary. 75-80k is reasonable assumption.

I came over to OD 1 month ago after 24 years at another LTL carrier. I can tell you without a doubt, it's the best decision I have ever made in regards to employment. They started me off at the "One Year" rate of $.6068, so I'll get a bump up to $.6258 in September. I do run NE, so traffic is a factor. I still average 480-500 miles per day plus hooks & fuel. Loving OD life.So can you tell me what the current linehaul rate is? I do appreciate it, I am in the middle of making a really tough decision on if I should take the position or stay where I am at.
Well, I am at a retail company and been here 16 years. I am not so certain about the future here so I started looking and was offered a position at OD. The thing is I make good money(around $95-100k a year) and have around 40 paid days off a year. I just don't want to take a huge pay cut but would be willing to lose some if in the long run would pan out.I came over to OD 1 month ago after 24 years at another LTL carrier.

Isn't this information you should have found out before going thru the pre-hire process?So can you tell me what the current linehaul rate is? I do appreciate it, I am in the middle of making a really tough decision on if I should take the position or stay where I am at.
Jackson TNIt would help to know what terminal you've applied at... my guess is you'd lose a little money to start and some vacation... you'll get 10 days vacation after 1 year, 2 personal days/year that you can bank up to 6, and your birthday paid off every year. Vacation goes up to 15 days after 5 years, not sure when but we top out at 4 weeks (20 days). In the long run if you are worried about the future where you are there are lots of worse decisions you could make than come here. But I would also imagine that with 16 years seniority you would be somewhat insulated from trouble.
Everything will be in your Employee HandbookForgive me, but I've only been here 6 weeks. I recall somewhere in orientation it was stated that vacation topped at 5 weeks at 25 years. Also the safe driving bonus starts out at $250 or $350 the first year and increases incrementally each year to year 10, then $100 per year after that up to 30 years at $3,000 per year.
