    On a lighter note and since we have the eyes and ears of a ttr staff member, would it be OK if I started a thread so i could unrerentlessy bash the truckers coach. I'm ready to swing for the fences baby. Just not on whippers thread.

    The truckers coach,really?
    He is a good example of what not to do.
    Ever watched his video of how to change a fuel filter?
    Fuel going all over the place,what a joke.
    Here's a guy who had a truck,sold it,turned it in and left SNI.
    Then bought another truck and leased onto a different company, that didn't work out so he moved again.
    It costs money to move from company to company.
    Lost revenue and learning a new system all adds up.
    Then he bad mouths companies he has never worked for.

    The guy is a PRIME example of what is wrong with the trucking industry.

    He should be called what he is:

    Moron.

    The fuel filter videos are classics. Did you watch the follow up video to his first? He is more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Knee slapping stuff.

    That's just the tip of the iceberg. There were a couple of usernames and 5 or 6 companies before He ever got to Schneider.

    Probably a bad Idea and a waste of bandwidth. Time to move on.

    I get that, but they should.

    Reason I brought this up is because it is underhanded. This is something that my little group of IC's brought up in orientation back in 2013. Obviously, it will never be written into a contract, but we were clearly told that the only freight we didn't have access to was dedicated and team freight. That and the holiday loads that were stored because storage was included in those rates. Anything else, we had full access to just like any of the company drivers. They told us point blank that they didn't hold back any loads based on rates.

    Obviously, I wasn't gullible enough to believe all that, but when I see dishonesty,I am going to point it out. This going on in Arizona is point blank dishonesty.

    More than anything, I point it out so any prospective newbie into this area has the opportunity to research and have a better understanding of what they are getting into.

    Another instance that I read on one of the Facebook pages. not sure how true it was, but I also don't want to call anybody a liar if I don't know for sure. Anyhow, she posted a few days ago about sitting at an IC and having her loads removed, with the first load being "cancelled". Supposedly, someone was talking to her at the OC (company driver) talking about just getting a load that was taking him home. Turns out, she got the ST number from him, and it was the load they had pulled from her. Once phone call and she got the load back, but still. If that is true, things are getting pretty nasty behind the scenes.
