Shaffer Experiment

Hope you're enjoying hometime.Say this guy here made a few threads about Heyl,he seems persistant on getting info,maybe you can help him out,http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...nside-scoop/272747-heyl-truck-lines-info.html.Back to your regular scheduled program,lol.

 

Numbers (particularly numbers as dynamic as those which xlsdraw posted in his most recent posts) don't amount to squat unless the other things that make a driving job a GOOD driving job are present. Not only do numbers not tell the whole story, the part of the story they DO tell isn't very large.

 

I think we're all curious as to what the point of this thread is then...if it's not to state what its really like to work there. The company can tell us numbers all day long. The driver tells us the TRUE story.

 

some drivers get paid garbage
At Shaffer you can make money

I got the miles when I worked there and so is OP

That's the point of the thread

I bet I can derail the thread with my "opinions" though lol.

 

the 21 day rule goes all over for the OTR .48+ pay rate

They do have a Northeast regional that pays a little more

 

I do some reefer freight and I'm on the crete
side my best runs are on the reefer side just had a Jacksonville, FL run too Albuquerque, nm

 

A couple weeks ago

 

Did you demand an extra .03 CPM when they give you a reefer load? You are after all signed up to be a Dry van driver.

But yes Shaffer does have longer runs than Crete on average , that's for sure.
But you'll get live unloads and wacky appointment times to make up for it.
