    You don't have to have twic but I recommend having it, and also hazmat before ever going to work pulling tanks. I rarely use my twic card but every now and then I have to show it. It's usually down in Louisiana or somewhere, I've actually had to show it over by San Francisco too

    Okay - i better understand your truck parking situation now.- just did not know if that was Schneider making you park at that location.

    Maybe think of that 2.5 hours as commute time to/from a job. ?

    The job i am working right now (Construction, Non CDL), my commute time is right at 2 hours to and from the jobsite each day Mon-Fri. ... 10 hrs commute weekly
    When i worked offshore, 7 on 7 off - the commute was 4.5 hours one way .

    Of course, if you are having to park your own car in a not-so-good location for 10 days - that would suck.
     
    19d Thanks this.

    So are you company driver or other? Just wondering if a company driver can turn down assignments like that.

    Maybe they thought you were Regional and not OTR ?
    This is good info for me to be able to see if this is a Company I wanna go with.

    Not making excuses for them - UnAcceptable in my book also...I Totally Agree - Not working for free
    What they want to pay? Like $20/move to you for local?

    I don't get anything cause the trailer moves were all in Charlotte, same zip code.. would be 0 miles for 3 pre trips plus driving and 3 post trips.. but I refused and now I'm doing what makes since.. grab a empty in Charlotte an take it to SC 90 miles away and drop and pick up a loaded to take up to New Jersey... you just can't let these companies take advantage of you at all or they will... I haven't let them not one time so far and will not ever.. this was weekend crew that dispatched me the trash.. I never have this is my driver manager is in duty.. so I don't hold it against nobody
