[Blindtlk] Paying a Driver

[Jessica Kostiw]

Hello Everyone,
I have a question.  When hiring a driver, is there a standard formula for 
determining how much you should pay them?  Besides distance, I understand 
that time and in the Washington area traffic is a major factor.  (Yesterday, 
a trip that should     have taken about 25 minutes took over an hour.)  This 
driver is very good, very punctual, and I want to be good to him without 
being ridiculous.  For the six days that I have hired him I am estimating 
that he will be in the car for about eight and a half hours total.  Our 
agreement is for $200, but I am wondering if that is enough now?  He is 
paying for gas.  He drives a Honda Civic, which thankfully I think is pretty 
good on gas.  He will be making about forty dollars a trip both ways, if my 
calculations are correct.

Any impute is appreciated.
Jessica
