Schneider chat room - Closed see new thread linked in the last post

Assachusetts. The state with only one Pilot.

 

Im in G.B for oreintation Bulk division i had accident a fall, when i get medical clearence i want to come back to Dry Van, my dbl said you usually have to work 6 months to transfer divisions, since im afraid to go ontop of tanker my dbl said shes not sure if they allow transfer or not, i hope they allow it i really want to stay on with Schneider, i guess time will .

 

So my question is are people that nasty that they leave trucks like that for someone else to deal with all the time? Mine was not bad when I picked it up but wow she has been rode hard. I got an 06 ultrashift from the auto care place in topeka. There was no trash but I had to use a 55 gallon drum of febreeze in it to kill the smoke. I am not a smoker so it was kinda rough first few days. Guess now I have gotten used to it. Be careful out there and hope road is treating ya better. Oh and btw I did go OTR outta Des Moines. Life is good so far.

 

I bet if they charged a fee to give to the other driver for his/her time spent cleaning the nasty thing and getting it back liveable maybe it would slow down some. But then again some people are just nasty and won't change.

 

Happened to me two nights ago but was at 11 pm. My thought was wow hi uh and almost forgot why I called. hahaha

 

11 is a good time to call. It's the worst from around 5pm-9pm. Then after around 12:30-1am, they go to sleep on the job until around 5am

 

What I don't get is that the 3 s h i tasticly nasty loaner trucks I have had, all had left over messages on the qualcomm that said the owners of those trucks got new trucks. Why on earth would they promote these nasty truck drivers to new rigs? They obviously don't have any standards of cleanliness of their living conditions, or to the trucks they were given in general... yet they reward these nasties to new trucks? I'm just baffled. They really ought to do some sort of truck checks to see how awful people are treating the rigs, and reward upon not only job performance, but how one keeps up their trucks.

I'm rockin' a nasty loaner again, and will either be out my '08 truck that has been kept care of nicely by me, and the previous owner, for weeks, if not forever, and I'm worried about what kind of nasty truck I will be put in. I truck for fun, and I'll be dam med if I put up with something nasty as a replacement truck. I rather quit than to live in something gross.

 

I feel your pain. They took me out my tractor in early Oct. Gave me a brand new cascada in mid DEC they took me out of if for a team. We swapped trucks I got there 10 century it wasn't clean it was beat up and took me 3 months to get all the mechinal bugs out of it. I was told I would get another new truck. Well they still haven't honored there word yet.
