    From my understanding they have moved away from that. Or shortly will.

    Edit. Rstewart beat me to it.

    LOL, I remember you saying a while back wait until spring time that they would change that policy because of how busy it gets...

    That's what I was hoping. This was just my day one complaint. Lol. It's definitely easier to use than Qualcomm, which isn't hard either. Oh yeah, man I LOVE these fuel discounts. WOW, is all I have to say.

    We had 3 people in orientation that went through flatbed class with no prior experience. Two of them were a husband & wife team from Schneider. I talked to more Schneider O/O at Mercer orientation than I did the year & a half I was leased to Schneider. Lol

    So true. I couldn't walk around that place without drivers talking to me.

    For the most part. They have about 3 or 4 drop & hook customers.
     
    HalpinUout Thanks this.

    We are having a huge learning curve going from paper logs to electronic logs. It takes a lot longer to go from point A to point B and makes it a little more challenging to pre-plan. We drove 670 miles today in exactly 11 hours. At first it said we had HOS violation, but I switched it back to on-duty (we were moving in the truck stop lot changing spots) and it said hours restored. I "think" we are no longer in violation as it says 11:00 hours driving. But we also hosed up the beginning of our day and forgot to change the status from SB to on duty for the pre-trip inspection--went right into drive time. I wonder if I can call logs tomorrow and ask them to add my pre trip inspection to the start of the day? We'll get the hang of it. LOL

    You have misunderstood my question,. As i have posted on here 2 times at least, on the bulletin board on the new load board, they posted they had the scrolling and bouncy screen issue resolved. I am asking if anyone with an iPhone , if that has resolved there issue. The fix posted here was to log out, change browser setting to show in desktop mode, this a fix for the problem, has anyone read this and confirmed results. And as far as lumping anyone with folks on a page, i stated and i read it here, that calling folks donkeys and such , or getting all bent , isn't going to solve anything. I can say bill Hewitt has been very responsive in helping people,. Why is the helpful person a secret?
