No, that's about right. I'm the bottom guy on the extra board. I have been lucky and have been getting 4-5 days a week. Sometimes I only get 2 or 3. With 3 days, roughly 9 hours a day, I gross over $1000.
If you spend most of your time driving, you can average around $43.50 an hour. Plus with task pay, hooking and dropping pays you for 30 minutes, but it only takes about 15. I drop out fast, then go clock into the dock. Anything I can do to maximize my paycheck.
And I thought for sure I was the youngest person on this board. S69 has me beat by a couple years, but I think a lot like he does. I actually had a pension at my last job. I make a lot more now, and work fewer hours. I also save and invest a lot of what I make so I can retire. While I have no plans to leave FXF, it is nice not being tied to a company.
We don't always control our circumstances, so I like to have as much control as possible over what I can.
