J&R Schugel New Ulm, MN

I think their minimum is 2 weeks out then 2 days home. I do 4 and 4-6 days home.

Anyways, Coming out of the house tomorrow. I'll post my trips for the week. starting a day late this week should still be able to make up for it...we'll see.

 

Back in the rig. Feels good. First load 777 miles from marlbourgh, MA to Zebulon, NC. Doesn't deliver until 19th @ 08:30. Will make it there early. Call tomorrow on 30 minute break to see if I can deliver tomorrow if not I'll be on time. Stay safe. 111 dead head 666 loaded.

 

Sweet! You have yourself a safe trip as well.

update after sitting at the Kens food for 6 hours I've decided to stop just shy of I-95 in CT. Probably won't make it tomorrow but should be just shy if the destination by 100-65 miles. I'll get there on time and should get my pre-plan I'm assuming around anywhere from 12-4 pm. I'll keep you posted! Safe travels to all!

 

i don't have one yet. I know the day is coming. When it does. I will respectively put my two weeks in and walk. I'm 100% not having a camera in the truck I drive. All thought I haven't had any problems with the company. I just want enough experience to go local. If the camera points in at me the. I like I said above will walk away. It's one thing to be pointing out but not in. That's rediculous.

 

Here at U.S. Foods in Zebulon, NC. Made it here @ 07:30am. Appointment was for 08:30. No pre-plan. VA I-95 was horrible south bound. Took 3 hours to go 90 miles or so from Washington to Richmond. I'm sure in the next hour or two when the dispatchers get in I'll have my next load.

 

Next load. Picks up tomorrow @ 15:00. Carolina Turkey's. 58 empty miles. 1,390 loaded miles with two stops. Both in Minnesota. Asked to get APU looked at because of the battery's dieting in truck must have somthing to do with the ALT code it through. 2250 miles on a short week. Can't complain. This will run through the weekend. Be safe, see ya next week!

 

Thw he deal is everyone in the fleet even lease ops are going to have a camera in the truck. When I talked to Clay aka the VP of Safety. He told me at right up that there would be two types of cameras. One facing out. As well as one facing out, and in the cab. He said that they're doing a study with a company on driver actions to see what they do while driving. He also said he couldn't tell who would get what camera. All I'm saying is if I get a camera in my truck that points in, I'm respectfully walking away. I can handle one going out for the time being that is required for me to go local hazmat. But, I'm not having someone spying on me. Like I said before, I have no problems with this company. Hell, I took 6 days off last home time after being out 4 weeks. They are a good company. With great people. I'm a professional Driver, that has a baby sitting Qualcomm and a speed governor on the truck already. Don't need eyes on me watching my every move. I don't care what they say about it only records this and that. I don't believe that for one second.
