    400 for Vnu don't mean to burst your bubble but it's 150.

    Unless they've changed it since Friday!

    Wait.....VNU is 150.00?? Yeah I'd say you busted my bubble, but better i guess then finding out friday, i thought they said 400.00 at orientation, maybe that was for relaying a load, funny that we have to pay them 400.00 for a relay, but we get 150.00 for their mess up.
     
    TennMan Thanks this.

    $400 is for repowering the load. I broke down in Youngstown, Oh and they hit me with $400 relay bill.

    Wow...i guess i got it mixed up, thats crazy but i guess it is what it is, good to know for the future. 150.00 is almost an insult
     
    TennMan Thanks this.

    How far are you deadheading for a load?
    Even at 50 miles it's still $3 a mile
    Yeah it still sucks but it's not that bad.
    What sucks is detention pay thankfully I only got dentained real bad only one time in 6 months here and that's even with all the short loads I pile up. That one time was a couple weeks ago when Schneider screwed up an appointment but it was a 200 mile load that paid $960 so they probably screwed up on the pay also lol.
     
    TennMan Thanks this.

    That load was 24 miles but that wasn't the problem, it was the 273 mile dead head to knoxville for a day off, here i am thinking its 400.00 so 1.76 a mile worked for me and i didnt mess any plans up, but ouch....150.00 kinda stings a little but its all good. No big deal!

    What you also could do is book a load with extra time on it going past the house.
    When I go home that's usually what I do.
    It helps a lot instead of trying to find load going nearby or having to deadhead a lot.
