    Markus, dont sweat anything. I was a little nervous coming in , but each day I'm more comfortable and confidant I made the right choice.
    Heres to hoping THEY think I"M the right choice too.
    I heard in class today its anywhere from 5 to 10 days possibly more. Just depends on where your TE thinks you are at.

    I don't think we have a terminal per se I think it's a drop lot up there. But to be honest i've never heard of either inthe 7 plus years i've been here. The only Operating Center i know of in the NE is Carlisle.

    If you have a fuel map look on the back and it will list all the Operating center's as well.

    Oh what the he** Going update this thread!

    Been doing pretty good here at SNIY! Not all a rose garden but can't complain. Grateful to be working and developing my skills in this new carrier.

    Just for those wondering .. here is a breakdown of miles and pay for last month.. Been here now 9 months equipped with a new truck now (almost new had 39000 on it) and one pay raise and hopefully another coming in Oct.

    Following is gross pay, I pay about $50 week for health, dental and vision and doesn't include taxes. You will notice weeks with less miles but with more pay than others. That is because I received lay over and/or detention pay that week.

    week 6/29/12- 2198 miles earned $629 (2 days off)
    week 7/6/12 - 1978 miles earned $758
    week 713/12 - 3112 miles earned $902
    week 7/20/12 - 2386 miles earned $727
    week 7/27/12 - 2847 miles earned $872 + quarterly bonus $617 and training pay = total $1504:yes2557:

    Not as much as I use to make in last career but getting there!

    Maybe down road try a dedicated account or O/O on choice will let ya know

    Presently in Salt lake waiting unload then picking up here and headed to Vagas! Stuck with one of these tight time to deliver and pick up is at 2:30 am.. have to be there by 10am same day.. :biggrin_25521:This doesn't happen often but every now and then you get'm

    Truck on!

    Back when you started did they work with you on your Blood Pressure? Mine does the same thing, its normal at home but when I go to the doc its goes up, white coat syndrome I guess. I just don't want to get sent home. I won't have any problem with anything else. Glad Schneider is going well for you.
