Roehl.......Minnesota

I can't remember what they said about that yard. I was going to go with them when I was looking ito a company but since I didn't move to MN, I went with another Co.

Roehl has a yard there SE of St. Paul. Forgot the term for it, I think its a drop yard or something like that. Basically I was thinking of working out of the St. Cloud area, but I think they wanted me to drop the truck off there at that yard, and then go home. They do hire within a certain radius of that drop yard.

 

There are 2 people from Minnesota in my class at RDTC. I think one is going to be on the 7/7, leaving his truck at the Newport yard, slipseating.

 

Yeah that was another sucky part...the slipseating...not a big fan of that. I like how Schneider assigns you a truck, and....well its assigned to YOU and YOU only. Heck, even the trainers at the OC's use their own trucks for training, demos...etc. I think they do leave the option of slip seating out there if it is absolutely necessary, but for the most part, it doesnt happen. I only drive my truck about 8 hours a day average, plus I have two days off a week...and it still stays with me.

 

Unless you drive 7/7, 7/4 or 7/3, you won't be slipseating. Regular Roehl drivers are assigned their own truck, and don't have to share it with anyone else.

 

I didn't share mine with anyone. Parked it in my drive way while at home.
