I have a chance to go local with OD--can some one tell me what a local averages a year at OD---also what their linehaul pays. I would rather have linehaul and may just hold out for that. It seems to be a really good company to work for. Thanks for the input.
 
I would not recommend "holding out". Get hired on and sooner or later a linehaul opportunity will open. After you get hired you can express to your tm that you are interested in linehaul. Dont pass up being hired because I dont think they will call you again.
 
Closely Guarded Secret

Pay is something we don't openly discuss. But, if you get hired by OD, sometime in the not-too-distant-future, you'll be in a financial "fat farm" that you'll never want to leave!! Good luck getting on with OD cuz it is nearly impossible to do, these days.
 
I see plenty of other men on different forums giving info to new prospects so I'll help out: Line makes over 50 cpm while city makes over 20. Guess it varies what part of the country you're in. Like another poster said, if you get in and you work daily your bills will be taken care of as long as if you haven't made a lot of bad financial decisions in the past. Good Luck.

[/quote]If you have to ask you are'nt spending any time on this site,where do you work?
 
DB use to work for OD. I dont see the reasoning for the hush hush on the pay. It wasn't issued via corporate. With the thousands of OD drivers out there, people on the outside will find out what they want to know eventually.
