    Is the above the norm at SNI or the exception ? I'm am going into SNI Choice orientation on 6-2-14 and wanted to see if this is standard procedure as far as a Pre load having to be live loaded etc .. And then having to pull off all your pre assignments and suffer because of a customers mess up .

    I know it's trucking .. Things happen but just wondering if it's the norm

    happens to me a few times. Maybe once or twice in two weeks. Usually it's suppose to be live load and it ended up being drop and hook. Probably only twice in 6 months it was change to a live load

    It's definitely not the norm, it's just REALLY irritating when it happens LOL.

    It is not the norm, have not had it happen at all. I have had live loads that turned out to be drops, but no one complains about those...

    I had drops that turn into live loads. When that happens im there no more than a 1hr. i had more live loads that turn out to be a drop. Sometimes, if i see a couple of sni trailers there. I would ask the customer if i could drop trl, sometime it works and sometime not. Never hurt asking.

    Yep. Pretty sure they weren't talking about transflo app. Someone probably made an app similar to the crossroads mobile app.

    What kind of fuel discount do you get with Schneider..and is that off cash price at pump? So many factors to consider before I can make the decision of moving from a company driver to a l/o
