    So, are you actually on the rotation, or not?

    If so, what's the issue? Other than sharing a truck with a smoker.

    You could have my luck. I share trucks with drivers who THINK their trucks need air freshener.

    Never ONCE considering that they might be sharing a truck with someone who is allergic to red #5 contained in many air fresheners.

    You hate the smell of smoke....and I hate coughing blood.:biggrin_25510:

    new nonsmoker. smoked for 30 yrs. prefer not to smell it all day.as it is I've been having cravings while driving or after a long driving day. next sunday t will be 8 months smoke free. want to stay quit.

    as for the rotation, no I'm not now on a rotation. I'm the only one. no one to rotate with, thats the issue.


    the other issue is theres no frieght headed toward home today, so I will sit to conserve the time I have left on my 70. all 09:14 of it.:biggrin_25523:

    So you guys on the 6/3 don't really get 6/3 if your POD is short? Or can't start the rotation, unless you have a full POD?

    Not sure I could hang with that either. But then again, I got the same song and dance at first to begin with too. Until I reminded people how and why I came here.

    Sometimes you have to rattle the cage, to get the zoo keepers attention. It doesn't take much. ;)

    they havent been too successful sincwe I came off the training board getting me home on time. I swear , some of these planners need drug tested. I have been bumping my 70 working a 6 day week, three weeks running. Which getting paid to actual drive is not a bad thing. Two weeks ago I had to sit for 34 to get enough hours to get the load delivered and me home!! BUT , if they cant or wont input my actual 70 hr time left from MY previous update on this NAT page and come up with some insane number like 69 hrs left to run , I might just walk. Which isnt really going to hurt the company at all really, but I dont make enough to sit and not get paid while they pull their head out of ...... I may just grin and be broke for a couple more months then switch to a different division. Or leave all together. I'd hate to do that, but man I got bills to pay.

    Mickey, are you on regional? Just curious. I see that SNI has a student graduate regional opening in Atlanta. Can anyone tell me what all regional entails? Where you run, what your schedule is like, how you get paid, ie. CPM plus deliveries, or just CPM? What's the home time like on regional?

    Anybody notice a change in payroll ???

    Are they paying us for loads we're under on Saturday at midnight? Even if it doesn't del till Monday?

    Looking at my payroll, looks all screwed. And looks like they paid me for a load that was delivered on Monday.

    1000 mile radius. Usually home for at least 34 hours on weekends.

    I never missed a weekend. However, 34 hours ain't ####. Sometimes we go 48-60.

    Are you on regional or were at some time? Did you like it? What kind of money can you make regional?

    And what day do they typically get you home?
