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

What an amazing coincidence. Not.

100-mile, 3.50/mile load that will get me where I need to be to be able to get home Friday night. Cancelled. This is twice in a row this has happened. The dollar-something loads never cancel....I #### near called the customer to verify it, but didn't. Sick of the BS. I may bail out in June. Screw them.

 

I doubt they pulled you of that load to give to a company driver. A good load maybe, but bit some 350 dollar cheap as dirt load.

 

I feel your pain.... literally. Getting old isn't it?

 

Already old. Been old. Overripe now.

 

Could've been to get a company hand home. Either way, there are too many instances of this crap taking place.

Bottom line is I don't trust them enough for them to tell me their trailers are orange.

 

Seems like an awful lot to do to avoid dhing a guy 100 miles. If it was a good load id say it was likely or at least possible, but for a crap load? Just seems like it's more effort than a pos 350 $ load is worth.

But hey what do i know? im just a spoiled part time flat bed guy that won't cross the street for under 500.

 

You forget METRICS .

If he runs that 100 miles load he can get within XXX miles of home. The dbl can dead head under a certain radius without being penalized.

 

$150 VNU plus you didn't have to touch their crap freight lol

 

Only if he's at their front door

 

Good Friday ... had decent paying load running me over the weekend. Broker called yesterday afternoon , shipper pushed it to Tuesday. Spent all day on the phone with the broker, looking for a replacement. Shippers started shutting down this morning and we're pushing loads out all day
