Schneider Chat Room version 2.0

No you don't have any good reason or you would post it. My 5th wheel was attached when I dropped the trailer, and so therefor I believe it is attached when I pick up the loaded one. I do two or three drops that can take 30 to 45 minutes each, so during that time a good driver, not me, would probably walk around and ever check his equipment, there is only so much that is going to go wrong with it in a given time span as well, or one could sit on his ### and get a little lazier & little fatter, the fornicate the K9 at the yard for 20 minutes I suppose. yea I'll start to do that.
And here's a little secret, out of the 6 drivers there, I'm probably only the 4th or 5th fastest.

I passed 3 level 2's & and a level 1 in just the last 10 months, with nothing more than a flag on my log for a post trip, your instructor is full of ####.
I flag it on my e-log, I had my 90 day the other day, she says you have only 1 log blip, and that's where I forgot to note the post trip, I flag maybe a minute. So I guess everyone, the lady that did the review, me, all the DOT that have done my inspections are F/U, all except the dude teaching orientation, that instead of just saying ' I'm wrong ' creates miles of BS. That's in keeping with Schneider's supposed values right?

This is my Saturday, I just got some good sleep, girl friend is at work, cars in the shop, bring it big boy I can do this all night.
Stop the blood running down Dad's arm from where he tore his bandage off from dialysis. Thing is he didn't even notice the blood lol. That's why I'm here, cause I watch him, and Punkin had the local job, when JBH called I had watch him 24/7. and when they call again, you will not worry about seeing a rogue, a scoundrel such as myself in another Punkin truck.

So bring it, what else ya got?

 

I don't have any good reason for what? Why they have you confirm your arrival? Are you serious? You think you have all the answers don't you? Think man, think, I know you have it in your. I would rather teach a driver by having them figure out the answer than just giving it to them, you don't learn that way.

And I will stress again, if you are doing proper inspections, you can't do a drop and hook in 12 minutes.

 

There have been many times when I have arrived but did not have the opportunity to update work flow until I'm in a dock. I also tend not to show my arrival until I'm sure that the load is ready as if I'm going to get pulled from the load, or have to go to the T/S and wait, it's easier for my dbl and me if I haven't started anything yet.

 

Oh look.....the guy Dave thinks is a monkey knows why they want you to confirm it! Things that make you go hmmmmm.

 

All this talk of monkeys makes me want some bananas foster.

 

You have no reason. Your another company monkey. Perhaps you will become a robot or get yourself micro chipped like my cat someday, so they can more easily keep track of you.

That's pretty funny you say I have all the answers, cause for 23 years I was a commercial electrician, and I had two different apprentices tell me in a semi hissy fit, " Your not always right Dave. Like 99% of the time you are, but not always."
I'm working hard on the other 1%.

What I do know, what I am very, very good at, is knowing when someone is full of ####.

 

Let's keep it civil please.

 

Idk 541 pages seem to be a record. Sad to get it close now.



*In before the lock *

I'm jk

 

In the Sate of Wisconsin Franchise holders are allowed to run there business as they see fit. Plus I would love to only pay 6 to 10 percent to Schneider. I will admit Schneider puts together a nice package get the truck, pick your own freight, etc. But Schneider can't just let us be! Most of us are paying them 60 to 100k a year for their %. We have ALL the risk and little upside. I don't know the failure rate but I bet it's over 50%. No Franchisers would ever sell a Franchise at that failure rate.


Be Safe Out There

The guy teaching orientation at Chicago Intermodal says that you have to be on-duty the entire time you're being loaded or unloaded. He also had some other wild requirements. And of course he couldn't be told that he was wrong about anything.
