Schneider chat room - Closed see new thread linked in the last post

I/C was coming into Kmart over in Ontario. I was waiting for about 6 hours to get my trailer loaded which they said was a simple Drop and hook. He saw my bob tail and he immediately turned around and left lol

 

Preventables are accidents that could be prevented right?

 

WOW... Got my i-Phone 4s replaced last week, and am just now catching up... What a bumpy ride this board is......

Gotta say Schneider is really treating me as good as they promised. They did NOT promise me 24/7 of green grass, but they also did not promise me weeks of crappy muddy yards... Each day brings new adventures, and if you go about it the right way, this can be a green pasture, a light green "holding pen", or your slaughter yard.......

Was in Edwardsville, got a relay to Laredo, delivered Monday night... Waited a Loooong three hours, and got this load to San Bernandino, will deliver Thursday before noon sometime... (I keep my NAT's and ETA's to within the two and a half hour time frame)...

Must say I've "shopped around" and still think that Schneider is the way to go, at least for my remaining nine months... I get antsy when I'm sitting for more than my ten, and Ive done quite a few 34's in various parts of the country. It's all how you approach the position.

Now, do I ask to do LA to Seattle for a week or two? I'm not due home till the First of Feb, and Edwardsville is my OC. I'm in ElPaso now, and am unsure where tomorrow night will take me.

Any of you west coast folk, if i can track you down, first round is on me!... Next time I'm back thru Texas, I'll hit up Ike!

Roadie...thats how we figured it. No job is perfect and you gotta pick your battles. SNI folks have it much better than some, and not as good as others. So you just ride it out til you find a situation that you hope is better and then you quietly walk out the door. If our credit wasnt so pitiful, we woulda gone IC, but the only truck they were willing to give us a chance with was a Century class, and the 80 pound labrador just wouldnt fit. We'll be back one day but until then, were gonna ride this until the wheels fall off.

It's such a pita not having a working Qualcomm, lol. Spent the day using paper logs and flooring it to 65 even coasted down some hills at 70-75 (in Utah, 75 mph speed limits). Delivering this load in Vegas tomorrow then hopefully headed to an OC or dealership to get this #### thing fixed.

 

I'll stay with SNI for another year or so. There's several local companies in my area who are hiring and have daily/weekly home time and pay over $20 per hour. Only problem is they can't hire anyone under 23 due to insurance requirements. Most require 2 years of experience as well.

 

Shoot.....Im over 23. Youre not near Central Mississippi, are you??? Id go apply for something like that in a New York minute.

 

Been awhile since I've been in here. Figured I'd stop in and say hello.
They've been keeping me busy.
