Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Show me where ANYONE said "guns scare them". Newbie just put out a story about how cops had pretty much shut down a truckstop he was at, and had rifles pointed at trucks. Then you had to insist he know if they were AR15's, or M16's, because "there's a difference". At that point in time, a rifle pointed at you is a rifle to the average American, and they would do whatever possible to be out of harms way.
Not trying to "sidetrack" again? Not like the last few times?

Back to SSB's thread......

 

That's the thing with large companies. The different departments don't communicate, so ops just see that there's a preload on their board that they need covered. I would assume their system would keep track if a trailer was dropped off but it's probably on a different screen and company didn't have techs program it to have an alert if no trailer at a location if a preload is setup.

On another note I checked with a tanker company I was looking at but I need to live within 50 miles of a terminal even if I want to do OTR.

Kinda sad but that seems to be every tanker company. Regardless if you going to be out for days they still want you to live close. Schneider is again the only one cause they allow up to 200 miles from a terminal but I be dmned if I go back there a 3rd time.

Other than the constant short hauls and hick ups as of late, I'll probable stay here for the time being. Still brought in $1100 after taxes for a whole week of same day short hauls.

 

Take the Red pill!!

 

They pulled too many trls out of service to sell before the new ones were even ready for pick up..not smart.

 

Don't feel too alone. I’ve experienced this same thing at several Schneider customers, especially new ones (usually at new warehouse facilities in PA). They show ready, light weight, and nice rate. I get there and zippo. I’ve already put a few of them on my “Don’t Fall For This One Again” list.

 

To a point I agree. But I know Schneider recently sold a bunch of 10 year old trailers for 90% of what we paid for. Those prices aren't going to last much longer, so dumping the pos trailers at a profit cam justify some short term pain.

 

Lol you know it is 2022, they have these trailer tracking ID tag thingy’s that one could use to know where a trailer is physically located smh.
