    Sorry to sound like a butthead,but I asked a question concerning loads and times. You may have not saw it, but it got buried in the England cluster. Thanks

    Kyjelly (just realized that screen name) lol.
    uhm honestly man, I can't tell you one forsure thing, yes, plenty of northeast and plenty and plenty and did I mention PLENTY of waiting to get loaded/emptied. No drop and hook, ever. All live all the time, last summer I wasn't in the northeast all the time but the wait times were my only hold up.
     
    freightwipper Thanks this.

    I'm stiiilllll waiting for my last check but I will say that I typically spent 23+ hrs a week just waiting at shippers and receivers. This does not include pre-trip time or driving time etc....just waiting time. Keep in mind that it is highly unlikely that you will be paid any detention pay for that time. If you're lucky (don't count on it), you might get the $10/hour the company will pay you but, UZ only does brokered loads so the detention pay system is very cumbersome and not designed in favor of the driver at all (even my dispatcher agreed on this one).


    Tom....is that the NEW KW I see? I can't believe you cut the umbilical cord with UZ, I was beginning to doubt ya. How about a few more pics so we can all drool...

    man you're gonna be in heaven the first drop and hook you do at Schneider. Stupid lumpers that's what I hated about reefers, stupid lazy lumpers!
    Last week I did two of them (drop and hook) where nobody was even there, I left a copy of the bills in the nose and was out just like that!

    I ran almost exclusively Mid-Atlantic and Midwest (not by choice)....with a tiny bit of Southeast thrown in. I was told by my dispatcher this was because there were no loads elsewhere. I was always running into or being chased by snow/bad weather.

    T_Trucker, my friend John still works for them. They recently gave him a 2015 Volvo. Is there something he should know?
