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

I think this..I average 5 loads a week at most, i like 600 to 900 mile loads. I stay out of NE, too hilly, fuel is more, loads out are way to cheap. I still make 1500 to 2200 a week take home...its not as easy as before but the key is really watching the load board and having good planning skills. Bottom line it can only get better.

Well guys i did the kllm lease deal I made it two weeks I turned truck back in yesterday. Their one huge flaw is dispatch.
They did give my bonus tho 1500 and paid for orientation 500 I would have got 1500 more if I had stayed 2 more weeks but my dispatcher was gonna leave me stuck in south Carolina all weekend. NOPE NOT ME i dead headed all the way back to jackson ms and gave em the truck back. I really think schneider has the winning program. Maybe I'll be able to come steal some of yalls gravy and biscuits one of these days.

 

What did you expect? .90 PM to pull a reefer? And depend on a dispatcher uhhhhh no thanks.

 

You didn't really give it a chance..it takes time to build a relationship with a dispatcher.
Just like when you're a company guy.
Hopefully you're not out any money other than working for free.

Good Luck when you bounce.

 

Well when the majority of these drivers that jump on these fleece deals have horrible credit and no money , it's apparent math isn't a strong suit for them.

 

Now that would have been an interesting video for their camera reviewers to see.

 

I lost no money, nothing will go against credit, it was pretty profitable to try it for me. I appreciate you guys chatting on this forum. I gave it all the chance I was willing to, when a man doesn't return a call or even put in for a load for me to get back home, according to the night dispatch guys, that's all I need to know. The only way it would have worked was if they had really awesome dispatch but that was definitely not the case. So i left while I was ahead it was a kool experience anyhow

 

@BigNate what's your next plan?
