SCHNEIDER-----Thoughts?

I start Schneider orientation this Saturday in PA. Wish me luck.

 

Good luck to you. I'll be in Dallas at the same time as you and probably doing the same things.

Are you going Regional or OTR - van or tranker?

 

Good luck! Soon you will be part of the pumpkin brigade.

 

I never worked there as a co. driver but I did as an O/O (not l/p). I can tell you they treated me good, got me home when I asked, and paid me correctly and on time

 

What are the weekly average miles with their regional tanker fleet ? What kind of earnings can one expect ? Their website says that 6 days of hometime are guaranteed. Does that include 34-hour resets, or are they in addition to the resets ? Thanks

 

Just got off the phone with my recruiter and once you are out in your own truck you get .32 cpm. After 6 months the pay goes to 35cpm. It is just 6 days per month home. You can take them however you want. 1.5 days every weekend or 2 wk ends off a month. There is also the extra pay for load/unload and tank wash.
Hope that helps you out.

 

Good luck david. I've typed it before, and will again, BE a sponge. Soak up all you can, and ask questions. Once you're out there, you'll likely think of more questions you'll kick yourself for not asking earlier. Don't worry about it, just find another orange truck.

 

To all going to orientation this week, GOOD LUCK to ya. Hope some of my wanderings helped.
I'm going back out the 26th. When I'm out, I don't usually visit many websites, so thought I'd do the well wishing now.

Be careful all.

 

Hey Graymist, are you Canadian by any chance?

 

You have been a great help to me, JD. Thanks for all the fantastic input.

Stay safe on the road.
