I declined Keim's offer in the final hour. Had one of those weird gut instinct things. While not happy with what happened in the beginning of my time here at Werner, I'm pretty much stuck untily MVR cleans up.
Bren, I've been on dedicated the last month now and the difference between dedicated and OTR is night and day. I'm treated like a human being, for starters, and if I actually have to go into the shop, it's usually a 24 hr turn around.
I'm very particular about my pretrips. I check tires and lights every day. I check fluids every two days. Body, frame, etc every three. I know my truck very well at this point.
Reaching the end of my patience...

The reply was correct those that work weekend are training weekends and nights. Don't tell them your plan or they will can you at term ask for route home then you don't have load or responsibility.

Re breakdown. I hope you are not trying to call them on the phone,you will be ignored. Use the appropriate Macro 42? If no response send again in 45 min and note 2nd request, after a 3rd attempt message to dispatch, asking for directions,and money. PS. I always started my messages with: FTR
Hang in there,,
Good luck with the wife,,I developed Multiple Sclerosis and fell out of the cab when my legs collapsed,,retired and on disability but miss the road,, -
Btw,,my stepson started at Schneider,,and still there, he has the same issues and threatens to quit a couple times a week,,lol. He can't stand to sit still for any reason.
I tried to explain he will have a couple low checks and then a super check. Never anything consistent unless on a dedicated. He was on a FritoLay. But actually had to roll off potatoe chips. " I am a driver,,not a lumper" as he walked away from $950 week guaranteed..geeesh -
