    Getting your operating authority is probably the way you need to go.

    No, I've been driving a company day cab for the last 4 years doing local LTL deliveries. Planning to pull the trigger and buy a truck next month though. Tough decision, since I'll end this year showing north of $90k gross on my pay stub.

    Update..

    Still with Schneider...

    Spent 31 days at home, came back out 6 days ago...

    Grossed $4958 on 2938 miles. Lots of problems along the way, loads 'cancelling', loads not ready on time, loads overweight and reworked by shipper...

    I'm finding it harder and harder to string loads together...

    I've been approved by two separate companies to take my truck over to them. Still weighing options on what I want to do...

    Life goes on...

    Roll on...

    I certainly found that to be the case near the end of my stay.

    I'm looking and researching now my next move, Schneider is a temporary location as of now. I don't know how long temporary is but I'm looking for a better fit.

    Good luck... There's no sense in hanging around Schneider when all they're doing is trying to s**** y**... A lot of us do know for a fact there are a lot better options for owner operators than Schneider so I know you'll find one
     
    driverdriver, 48Packard and TennMan Thank this.
