    Should have pointed him toward Schneider.

    $5K sign on bonus has to be worth a few payments.

    Fortunately no mega carrier company drivers had to be burdened with a shuttle load like this today. Not to mention taking away from their Playstation time.

    Our big load picks Monday.

    But this turned 216 mile DH into a 52 mile DH, paid for all the fuel, and put about $400 into the cat's pajamas.

    I used to pick up at titan tire and i doubt you would unload any of them. They would barely fit through the doors. Also would pick up at a place that would mount them for plants and never touched them either. Always on pallets and wrapped.

    I was wrong. I was wrong.

    Schneider is a top 10 company.
