    About same. I live in West and do fine with either. Interstate pays less Imo and mainly grocery loads. More options with Schneider.

    Either one is ok. I live in West. Interstate is primarily grocery loads and pays less Imo. Schneider has more options I think.

    Regardless of Owner/Operator or Company Driver, I feel the only fair thing to do is give the first load available in the area, to the first truck available.
    Of course a "home run" would be the only acception.

    When self dispatching that doesn't come into play. It's first person who booked it gets it. As you know fair means nothing lol

    That would be at the very least, efficient. But we all know favoritism and politics trump efficiency at all times. :rolleyes:

    Hey there, Golden Goose, I agree, that freedom board is a real mystery isn't it. Michelle decided to pull my contract yesterday. There was an instance on my eld on the 23rd, so safety was going to hold me until Fri. without a load, so she just decided to cut my throat all the way off instead.

    There is no way to run for a buck a mile. Fuel alone is close to 70. That leaves 30 cents for maintenence and insurance and a host of other things.
