    I have been going so much I can't keep up with my days lol but I don't like the little 84, 96, 154 and 174 loads to pu and dp but they did pay good I just hate Jills Routing because it takes me through a bunch of small towns and hated 21 with all the construction going to Campti Louisiana .

    I am going to be doing Midwest Regional for Schneider. Going to Orientation on the 14th of February. I assume you enjoy it, at least tolerate it. I figured i would do the 11/3 deal...and stay out longer if needed. Anything I might need to know about it? I was told I will not do East Coast at all and will not go in to the Rockies either...which is good for me my first 6 months/year.

    Send the a reminder if they try to dispatch out of your region. As western regional for Schneider, I was sent to Texas. After unloading, I was given a load to New Jersey. I sent a message that I was Western Regional. They took the load off and sent a load to calif

    Just don't want you to be surprised...in general Schneider "regional" is picking up a load in your region and taking it to PA/NJ/NY/CT etc.

    The recruiters read the predetermined script that is placed in front of them.

    @27butterfly runs regional for them. She could tell you. I talk to a dude who used to run tankers for them for about 5 years. Said he was making like .51cpm

    The recruiter told me I would not be doing any East Coast...I asked the recruiter to send me a list of the states i would be running in. If it has any East Coast...North East, I am bailing on this. Not gong to be lied to and then sit there and suck on it. I will just go back to working a desk...at least I can be home with my wife every night.

    Before you give up, remind the dispatch that you are regional and east coast is not your region. Quitting a job could affect your next driving job, if you decide to go back out on the road.
