    And there reasoning is there paying out the nose on pa and east coast toll roads. You probably won't get a official hey everybody just FYI the ind n oh tpk are available. If u call in of course the desk jockeys are going to spew the corporate bs. And in my 4.5 years at Schneider I've never been charged for those tolls. But its nice that Jill isn't a suffering from PMS when we run it.

    A fleet message I never got but my dbl has let me run it since mid January. It certw made today easier 45,000 going from Chicago to Coldwater - I-80 is a lot easier than US 12

    Man I can't friggin wait until it warms up and I head back up into the OH/IN area this spring. I normally (almost) get passed by Prime trucks but when I get up there on that turnpike that is one place I will absolutely hammer down. Now I can do it at SNI's toll expense.

    I'm going to email my DBL and ask if tolls are paid for.

    So I guess I did get the message (thanks 91B20H8). It came in with three other messages as I was kicking a trainee out at the bus station. As much as I want to find a way to blame Schneider this one's on.me.
     
    91B20H8 Thanks this.

    Lack of conversational English (could not read road signs and comprehend in time to follow them) coupled with no spatial awareness (i.e. couldn't set up to back into a triple wide space at the Gary OC without me telling him to stop, yelling STOP! and finally pulling the brake buttons before we hit the trailers across from the spot). He should have never been able to get his CDL let alone pass first week. Nice guy but not ready for trucking. He made the decision after we checked in at our drop on Sunday in Indianapolis and couldn't understand a word of what the clerk said.

    Most of them aren't that bad. He's the first guy that I've had to put on a bus in a long time.
