Don’t give a two week notice to Schneider National or they terminate you that day and take away all,

You can’t impugn the big orange some of us are old enough to remember when they started. They hated truck drivers CO 4070 with manual steering and no air conditioning the only reason guys worked there was it was a union shop.

 

I gotcha, any opportunity to pile on Schneider is a "GOOD" thing! LOL

 

I always forget, these forums are maintained by clicks, good or bad.

The more, the merrier

 

The other thread tells the tale Thanks

Honda hasn’t went out of business. Maybe they lost the account because of crappy drivers on the account. And maybe that’s why they told him goodbye

 

I quit Younger Brothers Houston, Tx (hazmat Tanker) one time after giving a 2 week notice and they wanted me to run another load ... and 5 more weeks after that ... they were very busy at the time ...at least they acknowledged that i quit.

 

Schneider sucks ......

 

Yeah, but when we come down on them some white knight always shows up to defend their honor and then it turns into a free for all.
On second thought, this place would be pretty boring without those one hit wonders.

 

My former company required you to request your vacation pay or as they called it " paid time off" by filling out a form which you had to hand deliver to payroll & keep a signed copy. They would pay it out in 2 payments 2 weeks apart so I had 2 stay another month to make sure I got all my cabbage. Opting out of per diem was the same way. They stopped sending pay statements in the mail to save money, yet make you go threw hoops to get paid walking forms around.

 

i was lucky, that all the companies i had worked for, the TM would just take down my request, per open spaces on the callendar, and he'd let payroll know about it.

i remember one company in particular, would not allow us to take a vacation day, every now and then...payroll said "it was too complicated"...

like WTF....you just deduct the vacation days from the driver, and then the driver only gets the remaining days off.

oh well.......

 

well i'd assume the Honda account was a dedicated account ?

if so, i have been dedicated for like the past 30 years (or so) and accounts are bid on. the customers put out bids to various trucking/logistics companies, and not necessarily the lowest bid gets the contract.

as you say, crappy drivers, lateness, damages, etc, are all taken into consideration at bid times.
