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

Needlessly complicated. Statistics run amok. The new Schneider National.

 

how is this co. comaried to others? looking for me and my soninlaw to team up on 11 western.

 

evens out? no it doesnt. You think sni is paying ME the full unload amount? Doubt it. They also cheat on the HHG. the cities listed on my WF assignments are often the main town NOT the suburb or other little town listed on the actual BOL.

Not that I'm gong anywhere or changing divisions. But right is right.

 

As a solo driver Schneider has been good to me so far.

 

If you want to team with Schneider , I've done it. They do know how to team dispatch. I wouldn't solo for them though. They aren't what they used to be. Trucks won't keep you comfortable either.

 

From what I can figure, OOR is not figured on mileage from navigo to odometer or workflow. I intentionally run OOR through PA and some other areas to avoid the small towns and stop and go and other stuff and my OOR is only at 1.5%. I have a feeling the OOR is fiugred on driving the truck while not logged into Drive duty. Let's say you are running low on hours and need to try and squeeze as many miles as possible so you stopp, just to OFF Duty like while sitting in a stoppage on the highway for a wreck. If you creep several miles while logged in as OFF Duty and such is where the OOR mileage is coming from. Although I'm not 100% for sure but this is where it would appear to come from because I drive OOR from the Navigo alot.

 

Nope, I never drive unless I am on the drive line and my OOR is over 3%. If what you described were true mine would be 0%.

 

I think oor is calculated based on what the billable miles is (what they are charging the customer) vs. the actual miles you run. That's why if you stay on navigo most or all of the time like I do, you end up with negative oor miles. Which logically leads to the question of if the company actually knows within +/- 2% of the distance between point A and B, why do the insist on paying HHG miles?

Everyone talks about driver retention, but few actually want to do the most basic thing.....be honest and pay people for what they do.....simple as that.

 

Driven miles compared to routed (not paid) miles is how it used to be.

 

If memory serves, while in orientation they would stress the paid miles + 10% as the routed miles to use for trip planning.

As for why they can pay HHG, well we sign the papers saying thats what we agree to, dont we?

It really amounts to greed.
