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

I've messaged them several times for an update on it. They replied once this morning saying that once its picked up workflow will automatically update with the trailer number. I still don't have a trailer number, its supposed to be picked up in Phoenix AS, if it hasn't been picked up then its gonna be impossible to deliver on time. Called in a couple times but got tired of being on hold. Guess I better try again and sit on hold for 30+ minutes :/

 

Was on hold for about 15 minutes, then it took about 15 minutes for support shift to find out where the hell the driver who picked the load up was and what trailer he had. Turned out he was in Fontana already but must not have entered the trailer # that is picked up. I grabbed the trailer and went to leave but wasn't allowed out the gate because the trailer wasn't assigned to me yet so I had back out and call support shift again. Also the trailer is due for a pm (due last month) so that was nice of him to not flag it and leave me with it. Decided the hell with it, I'm headed over to the French Camp OC when I'm done getting unloaded over here and I'll just drop it off there for a pm. Got here an hour and fifteen minutes early and am in a door but might not be unloaded until 0600. I'm going to head over to the French Camp OC when I'm done and have my NAT set to 0700 tomorrow morning, don't wait to get into working the night shift.

 

Got to love it when other drivers are too lazy or stupid to enter all the information. It's not hard and it doesn't take that long.

When I had the relay in KC last month I parked in the drop lot there. Was parked right next to the gate so nobody could come or go without me seeing their tractor and trailer numbers.



Got an interesting message this morning when I woke up. Apparently the GB division has had problems now wit h2 different drivers pouring Diesel into the DEF tank. What the hell would make a person think that was a good idea? There is a reason they use different hoses and the diesel nozzle doesn't fit. You would have to hold the nozzle outside the tank and hope for the best while it sprayed all over. Honestly if a person couldn't figure it out that Diesel doesn't go in a DEF tank they really shouldn't be around a truck. That's just basic common sense right there.

 

Lol, that's funny stuff!

 

That's why they didn't give my a tractor that takes DEF. I couldn't figure it out so they gave me one without it.

By the way, I'll say hi to the aliens for you guys on my next load

 

Yeah, I got that DEF message too and just shook my head.

I'm taking my reset in Ronks, PA (the more Amishy part of Lancaster) and rented a scooter. Way fun! I have lots of pictures I took today of the countryside on my FB, but only two of you losers wanted to ever be my FB friend.

 

Sitting in hotel in Fontana waiting for orientation to begin tomorrow. Check out my thread in the Schneider section for updates!

 

Looks like SNI is gonna be adding another temp sensor that will disable idle. By EOY all trucks will be retrofitted. Basically you will only be able to idle above 80* and below 10*.

 

I need to get a load the hell out of California. Been running less then 400 mile loads up and down I5 between the L.A. area and Stockton area. Getting bored of it.

 

Got a source for that information?

Then I suppose you wouldn't like to hear that after I deliver this target load in Woodland, CA I have a 150 mile deadhead to Sparks, NV and then 1795 miles to Laredo.
