Well someone sure dropped the ball, just made my delivery to Walmart in VA and has a preassignment to Kentucky. Called in and no one could figure out why. My dbl wasn't there so who knows. Apparently nothing headed out of here towards home. I'm told they're working on something. Great. It's one thing if they can't get me home because of loads, hours, etc. **** happens. But just completely forgetting about it???

Who schedules your runs your dbl or does someone do it for him? Why so hard to schedule you home there? He must have more than he can handle?

Well, I sat for 3 hours at a truck stop after delivering to the Walmart DC until they got me something. Deadheaded 150 miles into a small town sort of near Norfolk, VA, D&H load there. I'm relaying it to some yard in NC thats about 80 miles from home. I didn't have a waypoint or a message telling me to go home afterwards, so I'm assuming that they'll want to put another load on me tomorrow after I drop the relay to get me closer to home before releasing me. If they actually have a load. It sucks, I almost feel like I'm whining about it a bit, its just that I've been out for 5 weeks, I've never ever declined a load since I started working for Schneider, I don't call and complain about anything, I put in my hometime request with 2 weeks notice like my DBL asked me to do... I play fair. Just ready for a break, I really do hope they get me home tomorrow.

Doesn't sound like you're whining to me. You just want to get home. After 5 weeks out, who wouldn't. Hang in there man and good luck.

Still haven't made the drop yet, got about 100 miles to go. I'll give them a call tomorrow after I drop if there is no preassignment. I noticed on the workflow there is no task to pick up an empty, so that's promising. Fingers crossed..
newlife1966, Skydivedavec, Kutina and 1 other person Thank this.
