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

It's the system and don't ask my why because I don't know.
Any time anything is changed in your work order( workflow) that stupid thing will 99% of the time reset your eta's.
Like add or remove a p/ u mt task or something like that.

 

Both bulk & Intermodel are allowed to run toll roads. I know schneider used to do orientation for all three together and every time he said something about a company rule, he immediately said Intermodel & bulk guys that didn't apply. I know the bulk guys run the IN & OH toll road all the time.


On another note, I really hope everything is ok with @freightwipper . I can't imagine what happened for him to lose 2 trucks. I don't know the man personally, so I have no idea what's going on. I really really hope it's not a drug problem or even worse. Bud, if you're out there, let us know your at least alive.

 

i'm pretty sure it's an automated system that changes them like a waterfall like that, i've asked them to tell the IT department to build a 'lock' for ETAs written by the driver, unless it's changed specifically by an BOA or DBL, but in 2 years that hasn't happened yet. I quit updating them for pre-assignments at all, no point. Unless it's an ETA for a pre-load, because if they see I'm going to show up early there is a chance they MIGHT ACTUALLY LOAD IT. If the ETA is later, no way they are going to even start it until they absolutely have to. It also works for the tank wash, if your ETA shows you'll get their early the tank will usually be done because they front loaded it. Otherwise they'll clean others that are higher priority first.

 

I sincerely wish the best for whipper. Whole thing sounds fishy. A private investigator could find him before the sun comes up. Just hope he is not in his co drivers basement with a ball gag in his mouth waiting for the Gimp. Seriously.
The dude was way to sharp to go down that fast. It just seems fishy. Hopefully he will make it known that he is ok. No explanation to anything else needed.

 

He's not on here anymore. His account is closed.. He obviously doesn't want to be found.. It was a good story but ended poorly for whatever reason

 

His profile on here is not closed... He just has it to where nobody could see his profile scares so

 

what's really annoying is if you're going to pick up a relay......every time anything happens to that load, your workflow is changed

 

Freightwhipper is hauling gravel and rocks in
A sand pit somewhere in northern Montana.
Living in a beat up trailer in the bosses back yard
For free.
Licking his wounds.

He's saving up his money for round 3.
He'll be back on here sometime around November,
With another truck,another company and another
Story to tell.

He's incognito.
He's reading all these post about him right now,
While looking over that barren wilderness,
Wondering how the hell he ended up there.

 

This for real or some fantasy of yours where you're the boss and he's staying in your back yard so you can "help" him when the heater goes out in the trailer you're so generously providing for him?

 

Thats the truth driver, I wouldn't tell
A lie.
I talked to him last week.
He'll be back on ttr by the end of the year.
You heard it here first.
