usground are shady pieces of shlt. i worked for them for a long time, and they still owe me over $1k for the last few weeks i did there. you will make more working for them then for city express, but it's almost never going to be $500 take home. your ic liability insurance and payroll comes to about $40 a week, and they charge you $20 a week to rent their radios. they also force you to use a really counter productive dispatch system, and their dispatchers are incompetent. the company breaks the law daily by charging under $3.00 a tag for some clients, and you only get 50% of that ridiculous rate. i was the only person at the company who ever broke guarantee, and i had to kill myself to get over that $100 a day, begging the dispatcher for more.

be careful with those guys, they'll throw you in the gutter if in any way it serves them to do so.
