    So far I'm very glad I chose Schneider over the other companies I researched. Met some very nice Schneider drivers (and some narcissistic whiners / complainers that would never be happy no matter where they worked or how much they made)

    Drove about 2,000 miles this week and coming off a reset in the morning.

    Have had a few things that did not go perfectly (live load instead of pick up loaded when I was nearly out of hours, blown tires on a trailer, etc.) although nothing out of the ordinary (the pre-loaded trailer instead of live load right after that made up for it - it balances out)

    Keep up the good attitude and stay away from the debbie downers and you will be fine.

    Don't sweat the small stuff, some days you get the bear and some days the bear gets you!

    Money ok - equipment is solid and well maintained. What I like is the variety of assignments and schedules. Tanker assignment looks pretty decent, would be interested in hearing back from the drivers on the Division operation.

    I had two short runs back to back - and that is what set me up for the 1,200 mile run!

    I am going back to Schneider next week! I loved it there, and I am excited about going back. I left because I got an amazing job offer that even Schneider said I would be crazy not to take. But unfortunately, there is no longer any work for me at the small company I went to. I will miss them and I wish it could have worked out (the pay and hometime where FABULOUS). But going back to Schneider will be like going home again. I am happy you like it at Schneider too, BlueSparrow. Maybe we'll run across each other's paths at an OC somewhere (hiding from the whiners..... LOL)!
