Now we get payed a fixed amount for each sector regardless of how long it takes to get there and many of us just fly close to red line, who cares about fuel since we're purely operating as ACMI anyway.

Nice to see your company value a bit of commercial awareness amongst their pilots. Guess it shows not everyone shows the same level of professionalism.
Well, we're still payed block time, however a fixed amount for each leg, so called standard block time, no matter how long it takes. So why take longer than you get payed for? And no, my company doesn't pay the fuel, the company that leases us does (ACMI just includes aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance), my company couldn't care less.
