Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

For what it's worth this is my outlook.
My mindset is the more I do what I HATE to do, I more I do what I really hated to do as a company driver... the more money I'd earn here lol.
Sounds strange but it's true.
So things like my 70 and 11 I don't really ever have to worry about, like ever!
However my 14, that's a different ballgame there

 

Looking at truckn pro software,new at running with own authority.one trk business w/ myself driving.Any suggestions on which program to look at? Any help greatly appreciated .

 

I would go with the Truck Pro 7. Its set up for single operation. Very easy to use.

 

I am NEVER going to the Peelot in Richfield, Ohio ever again.
That place is a joke to be called a truck stop.
Finished my day early... ZERO parking spaces. yeah at like 2:30 pm
Didn't realized that at first, I got stuck in the fuel island with trucks everywhere blocking every direction and not moving.
So I left my truck and went to the restroom, wait scratch that male restrooms were closed.
Go figure outside toilets at the Peeing Flylot.
Anyways go back and I see what was going people.
Drivers literary camping out blocking the fuel island waiting for the next person to pull out of a parking space.
Someone eventually left and it was a mad rush with people blocking and cutting off each other, then saw a dude get out of a passenger seat in a truck and blocked off the space and guiding in what I guess was his co-driver.
Took me an hour to get out of there.
On a bright note I had a live load that turned out to be a drop and hook today

 

Right there at 77 and 80? Yeah. Never again.

 

Yes...

On my way out there was Pride transport truck literally backing down the street along side the truck stop to turn back into the Peelot where everybody was exiting.. probably to try to make his own special space.
I had to wait for him to back down the street further just so I could make my left turn out of there.

I don't even want to imagine that place at night

 

I've been on choice for a whopping 15 days. . And I have conducted a couple daily experiments with the 60 mph vs 65mph. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE difference. And the loads still got picked up and delivered on time. And as someone said earlier, stay in the right lane and let everyone else get crazy in the left lane.

 

You end up at the rest area just down the road on 77? Its small, but pretty sure not full at 1430.

 

I was at that jacked up place yesterday around 6pm, said to heck with it and got back on the turnpike and went to the nearest service plaza.

 

I.....HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE rhat place. That and the peelot in Gary, In. Worse though eas that pilot they closed down on 285 in ATL....THAT olace was a ####show.
