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

Haha, yeah but its perpetually warm and the only white stuff we have is sand and cocaine

Our dragstrip is open year round!

 

I don't know what LS guys get. I haven't looked that much into it. What I do know is that many O/O's have detention in their rate quotes no matter who they work for and I promise you it's much more than the $20 we get for 6 HOURS.

My argument is more along the lines of making sure your rates cover that potential 4 hours you'll be down. you make it sound like every shipper and receiver is going to hold you up. That simply doesn't happen at the majority of these places that aren't a grocery DC.

What I also know is the quote "time is money was used". If I'm stuck in a door that 70 isn't burning. If I'm hunting an empty...it is...and for free. Do 2 empty searches a week and you've lost 2-4 hours off that 70...and that 70 is what makes you money.

 

Ive only been at a customer long enough to get detention 4 or 5 times. It ranged from the lowest at $35 an hour to i think $55 an hour was the highest. Ive been paid detention several other times where i wasnt even there beyond 2 hours but it just showed up on my settlement. I dont call and ask how or why.

 

I'm gonna go ahead and say that's better than doing an mt hunt

 

You dont want to have to do that here.. You may not find one for days. Hasnt happened to me yet. I do lots of drop/hook at shipper then live unload so that cant happen.

 

I don't know if this is true. I heard the agents at LS have too find you an empty.

 

You back up and running @rickybobby
