so reluctantly I sought out cdl training. Schneider covered that. it was all downhill from there.
hire date was Nov 8th 2017. I'm quitting soon for the same reasons. did otr. did the east. never west just like you say. same reasons.
throw in that fridges microwaves etc are contraband and you only get 300 watt inverters to play with.
idle temperatures are below 20, yet it still says it's 27 in Michigan when it's really sub zero weather. lovely.
my favorite ######## lie was "you can't release yourself to go home. we have to do that."
I switched to Topeka dedicated home deathpot in early April. $300. $200. $150. per week.
that's literally beneath minimum wage.
get a cdl they said. skilled labor pays they said.
6 months of my life home for nothin but a pile of monopoly money. I could'e been at home flipping burgers for this kinda pay getting drunk every night too. no truck stop aroma of pissjugs. no supertrucker grandpa douchebags. no east coast. no nothin.
no nothin. probably my next week' paycheck.Rocknroller4 and Odin's Rabid Dog Thank this. -
Stick it out another 6 months, get that full year experience and keep your nose clean. There’s better, smaller companies ;I can name a couple of them based out near Fargo ND) out there that pay better, have good long runs all over the place and will treat you way better. Schneider doesn’t care if their drivers live or starve. The people working in that headquarters in Green Bay have no idea what goes on out here on the road and view drivers as mindless drones that they can brainwash to their corporate garbage.
Oh, and avoid Veriha like the plague.. they are run by ex-Schneider lackeys, and act the same way.... except most of the freight is garbage (scrap cardboard) most of their equipment is old garbage, basically whatever they pillage from companies they have taken over and stripped out while feeding the bought-out company’s drivers a load of bs. -
One does not go to a mega to make money. They go because they need to start somewhere.
Now that you have 6 months in, you likely can get a real job. And the benefit of that is, you will likely make enough to not only bring home an ok paycheck, but still pay back the loan you will owe Schneider for the CDL and still be ahead in the game. Maybe not by much, but at the year mark more opens up. Then at the 3 year mark you basically got it made. -
