Personal Hygiene (Showers)

not for nuthin'..... I hav'nt been out here too long and try to stick with Flying J when I stop. (mid atlantic and gulf coast) I find it odd that I can walk in and never have to wait for 1 of 8 showers, with a hundred trucks parked in the yard....... just sayin'

 

i thought i was the only one who noticed that lol

Schneider doesn't allow split breaks, only 10's.

And waiting for showers isn't an issue. It's when you sit through 6 hour loads, take a load 200 miles, sit through another 4 hour unload, get a 60 mile load with more loads and unloads, and you never even see a truck stop in the process and don't even fuel for 3 days or more. Those are the issues I'm talking about.

 

and split breaking doesn't make the tight run time any more flexible.

 

I'm in Idaho and am really limited for newbie companies. So yeah, I'll give Swift at least a year. I'll starve and probably lose one of our cars to repo, but what the hell. Gotta start somewhere.

 

(insert non existant pimp slapping smiley) Why waste a year of you life? you have 50+ options

I just started truckin' school. I was the second person to walk in class and had ample choice of seats. I thought I had picked a pretty good spot. The guy that happened to sit beside me is the most dirty student in class. He stinks and looks horrible. His clothes are dirty, his hair is a mess and he is gross. He constantly interrupts the instructor. I can just imagine what his truck will look like (if a company is deperate enough to hire him). He said, "Schneider has some pretty nice trucks".

 

what school are you going to?

Welcome to trucking. More of them than there are of us.
