At that time, the truck got paid just $1.00 per loaded mile, and out of that $1.00, I got paid 20 cents per mile to drive it. [Reply]   [No Email]

Sit and wait for something to come along that paid full price or take a load that paid his way home. I suspect he wanted to get back home so he took the load right away. It wasn't that I only offered him that much, it is what he wanted for the load so it worked out for both of us. He might have made his profit for the return trip on his original load there and this could have still been gravy for him also. I didn't ask and he didn't tell. [Reply]  [No Email]
