Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

That's what I keep telling myself, LOL. I am in Cleveland, OH waiting for them to finish loading my trailer. Funny thing is, this was a live load but they turned mine into a drop and hook because the 1100 SCI driver showed up an hour late, but they haven't finished loading the other trailer yet. Oh well, time to catch up on my bookeeping.

 

I might try and grab one of those next week. My parents will be in Phoenix and it would be nice ot see them for a minute or two.

 

Why? Most secure job in the world.

 

Same thing happened to me last week at that place. Company driver showed up at 1200, I showed up at 1210. He got the loaded trailer, I had to sit for 2 1/2 hours. Thing about that place though is they don't even follow appointment times. If you have a 1230 at that place just show up at 10am and they'll give you the load that's sitting and waiting.

 

I didn't have to sit that long, they were just finishing up the load. On the plus side, I was able to get rid of a POS trailer for a 13 series . One of the funny things about that shipper, I sat there on the street waiting for the other SNI driver who was blocking the gate figure out how to open the gate. He was honking the horn trying to get them to open the gate for him, LOL. After 10 minutes I finally pulled up and hit the call button to open the gate. Basically had to make the guy back up so I could get in the gate. Some how that drive couldn't figure out he needed to push the button that was 5 feet from his window. Oh well

 

According to the consignee they are going to make a call and not have any more delivered before the 17th.

It paid ok but leaving here sucks.

I only booked it because a load out of here on Wednesday was available for almost the exact rpm.

Then its to TX then home.

 

I was near Pittsburg last night and the temp dropped to 58. Felt like late September. No complaints!!!

 

I was in Missouri last night and it got down to 76!!!
