    I know someone probably would've taken it without taking it and would be at home on the line.

    Last time a customer told me that I told them I wasn't a Schneider company driver and rolled on down the the road. If I remember correctly it was Wal-Mart beaver dam. Never heard anything.

    Sounds about right.
    That load had the exact same rate for a year or so.

    Schneider is doing the same thing. At least some places I've seen. Ive had a few loads where the billing paperwork was with the bol. It's always interesting to see my paid mileage at 379, Jill's route that avoids toll roads at 410 and RM route that takes fastest route at 424. And then customers paperwork that says charged for 424 miles.

    Schneider figures out exact distances for billing customers. And then they figure out HHMG miles for paying company drivers and whatever they do with the board. They actually do more work than it would be to calculate every load accurately. And they make a pile of money from doing that with company drivers. What I don't see the point of is doing that with choice drivers. Is it done to trick y'all into taking cheaper freight? But it wouldn't change the rate all that much...

    So.......I should hire someone to book loads then...... Lol

    I'd have my wife do it, but she has absolutely no sense of direction and I might never be home when she sees the money.
