    Howdy, I'm Tiller. I'm off to Fontana, CA for orientation with Schneider next week.


    I wanted to say "Hi" to the Schneider folks here. I'm likely to have a few questions come up over the next few weeks.


    A big "THANKS" to those of you that have posted of your experiences with Schneider here. These posts, along with conversations with several current and former Schneider drivers in person over the past few weeks, were instrumental in me deciding to join Schneider.


    My biggest hope right now is that the many tales of 300 mile, 6 hour empty trailer searches are simply untrue. :biggrin_25525:


    I'll post a bit about orientation as it goes along for the benefit of those that are interested, and I'll post about getting started back on the road after a very long break from trucking.
     
    Running Bear Thanks this.

    BWAHAHA! Wait til you see a yard full of trailers and someone takes yours because theirs had a flat tire , no lights or the door was ripped off. I rarely see a trailer on the road that isn't damaged. My bro worked for them 1 year for experience, ran Pa-TX and quit. Low pay but good trucks.Went with Roberts out of Northeast Pa. Hauls reefers and dryvans PA-IL-WI- and the south. Good benefits.

    Hope you've been reading Softail's posts...He has been out two and a half months and his posts are good read for any solo out of the PNW. I'm not a big fan of Cali and Oregon when it comes to big trucks. It's one of the least trucker friendly areas of the country. You can make a decent living at it.

    Enjoy your time at orientation. The people there are good people and the kitchen has awesome hamburgers!
