Schneider Intermodal/regional....Charlotte, NC

Hey, do you know how the Regional guys do out of Charlotte? As lucrative as Intermodal?

 

THANK YOU for setting that slob straight! There is nothing worse for the image than a total pig that smells like merde, wandering around in a truck stop like he owns the place, hasn't brushed his tooth in three weeks, and makes the plants wilt in the restaurant. I always try to dress like I don't belong in a truck. You'd be amazed how much better the treatment is that way at shippers and receivers.

And SF to both of you Marines.

 

Thanks for that. Just talked to Donna about regional today. No more mileage pay than where I'm at now OTR. Too much broken time, and only 1 year of the most recent experience. The rest started in 2007 but not enough to get me over the three year mark for pay bump. I'm reading the mile bands for short haul and still looks like I might be able to earn decent pay with as little as 2500 miles, but there would definitely be those weeks where I would have to stay out over the weekend and keep running to make up. It's either this, Metropolitan, or some local rogue paper-log company that wants 700+ mile days up into the NE. Might just wait for Intermodal to call me back.

 

Ok, no Intermodal available right now out of Charlotte. Going ahead with phone interview with Donna on Friday. I'm thinking it's probably better than I run with regional for less money than run illegally with the local small company for a lot more money. If I burn out and need to leave said company, it's not going to be anything any solid company wants to use as experience. Besides, it should be easier to find a SNI Intermodal from within the company.

 

HAPPY NEW YEARS TO ALL YALL! DONT BOTHER WITH RESOULUTIONS CAUSE YOU WILL JUST BREAK THEM! Spent my last day in a truck and now gonna take a break for a year and go work with an old friend till next year. Job pays way high 6 figures and I can't pass it up. They may fire me but I will be there till the end. It's in Illinois but I can deal with it for a year. I will continue trolling this site and adding my 2 cents cause I love it so much. Lol had a couple today. Anyway all my truckers buddy's stay safe keep a keen eye out and watch those 4 wheelers and I hope to run with ya again in 2015.

BTW SEMPER FI TO ALL MY BROTHERS IN GREEN!

 

Happy New Year to all be safe.

 

Sweet! That big green weeny may just come in handy after all!!

Sounds like a good plan! Planning on running way more than the 2300 mpw quoted me, figuring on staying out a couple weeks or maybe 1.5 weeks to bring home some bacon, and maybe doing a 10 at the house whenever I can. Will definitely keep this thing I call a face in front of the intermodal folks. I'm handsome enough that they won't forget my face anyway. Sometimes, it's a curse looking this "hawt" (at least that's what I told that LtCol's daughter in Okinawa).
