Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

As far as I know I could run the George Washington bridge 50 times in one day and still wouldn't have to pay for it. I'd probably snap and run myself off the bridge after the 3rd time but still lol

 

You'll be needing bottles of xanax and anti-depressants to be playing the unconfirmed load game.
That's something I completely avoided my first oh 10 months of working here.
I now look at unconfirmed loads simply because now there's less loads lately and am looking to see all of what's going on in every market.
I'm somewhat with you on all that, it's way too stressful and aggravating to trying to make those work. When a good load confirms you really have MAYBE 30 seconds tops to book it.
Sooo many times I'd get a message saying a load confirmed only to not see it there a couple minutes later.
Only times I found it helpful for me is finding OKAY loads to and from my house. Other than that everybody almost always beats me on unconfirmed loads.
Really makes me feel like a loser when that keeps happening over and over again.
Loads I got beat to today were never on the unconfirmed list, they made straight to confirmed. I still got beat and that was when I was sitting in my sleeper with the laptop opened and saw I good load to escape the northeast pop up. In the idk couple minutes I pulled together loads to get me into there and out I was too late
Oh well.. so I won't see PA this week lol I don't mind.
To be honest I wouldn't mind if Schneider got rid of the whole unconfirmed list. I think it does more harm than good.

 

That was a program, just like "choice" is a program. It's up to the driver to decide what they want to do.
There's still mileage based tanker ICs out here.. that program still exists but it sucks.
They got rid of the Van mileage program not too longer after I joined here.

 

Good loads go fast, great loads go very very very fast and there's only so many of them, Then again what's good to one might not be to another. Luck and guessing right plays a huge factor also.
