Found this thread while trying to figure out if I could take 550 for a delivery in New Mexico. The delivery point was on 550, but I couldn't find...
Thanks! I'll check that stuff out (probably when I get home on the weekend...)
I've been driving tankers for about five years. I spent a couple years in the Eagle Ford hauling crude and fracking fluids. Then I burnt out on...
tl;dr, I'm looking for a driving job that would let me work about 45 hours a week, make about $20 an hour, maybe even live within driving distance...
Welcome to capitalism, guys. Which industry still exists where corporations haven't eventually outbid the smaller companies? That's life. Just...
I doubt that Schneider is "done" in the Eagle Ford. Those accounts made them a lot of money when they were going, and I'd bet they're gonna keep...
Ugh, they're losing drivers from their OTHER accounts? ####, what are they doing. :/ On my account, we were all given offers to go over-the-road...
The last chapter in the story, for those of you that like watching train wrecks... A couple of weeks ago, we were told by corporate to cut down...

"Some basic requirements in STX: Drivers: MUST have 1.5 yrs CDL A driving experience..." That's part of the problem. Some people got hauled down...
I listened in on the conference call. I know about being cut down to only 50 loads a day. I've been told that we're not laying off any more...
...I don't have any idea what is going on in the last five replies.
And a couple of those slashed steering tires blew up on the road. This #### sucks horribly, and I really feel for the guys who got laid off, but I...
