Schneider chat room - Closed see new thread linked in the last post

Busy day. Just pulled into Carlisle with 00:01 to spare on my 14. Not kidding either. LOL

 

Sweet. First day under my regular dbl. Had a 400+ run to eastern Pa. Then was given a 1440 ml load to Tx. Hazmat no less(my first). Dbl sent several messages. One was to say he was trying/going to have this Tx ld made into a relay. It has to deliver monday(last day before TAH). Target. Seems their panties get all in a bunch i floads are early at their DC's/ Whatever. Just give me half the miles for this load and route me back toward home. Then I'm good.

AND for the time being , no slip seating. I get to stay with this truck. Said once the other 2 drivers surface and we can get paired up, he'll pick the best two trucks out of the three for us to rotate in.

 

Well, been running like crazy lately. Sitting in Lagrande, OR right now heading down to El Paso TX. Started in Gary 10 days ago, went to West Branch, IA, down to San Antonio, out to SoCal, then up to the canadian border in WA, now heading back down to TX. Last 4 loads have averaged 1500 miles each. Guess good streaks happen every now and then.

 

Well this sucks. Went to go grab the paperwork for the load and was told someone already took it...........

 

Anybody else running southeast regional getting live loads and unloads and double pick ups and double deliveries? I've been getting hammered last 2 weeks ever since I told my dbl I'm going bulk

See, my damie, Pootie Tang don't wa-da-tah to the shama cow... 'cause thats a cama cama leepa-chaiii, dig?"

 

hmm, I picked up a 1400 mile hazmat load going to Texas yesterday LOL, and it doesn't deliver until Monday, but I talked to my DBL and I am gonna deliver it tomorrow because I am in a loaner truck and this one has to be back by Tuesday, and my "new(new to me) truck just got to the Columbus OC today.....I hope it isn't a POS LOL

 

I take all the live load and unloads, double and triple pick up and deliveries I can take.....only worked 3 days last week because of TAH......only ran 4 loads, all 2 and 3 stop drops, all live unloads(2 driver unloads) and for only running 982 miles my paycheck was where it normally is when I run 2800 LMAO!

send em my way

 

Does Schneider pay extra for having your hazmat endorsement?

 

nope

they really don't do a lot of hazmat, I think this is only my 3rd hazmat load in 8 months....but if there is slow freight, and you have hazmat, you are sure to get a load before other drivers, so it is really to your benefit.

 

I havent seen it yet I dont think , but they will also reimburse up to $50 for it too?
