The rookie

Yea that’s what I was hoping looking to go local

 

Before I joined ecolab I didn’t have one check that officially grossed (998 was my highest) since joining ecolab my lowest was 1100 last week hitting 1400 so it seems the only way to get consistent checks is dedicated with Schneider. I hate that everything is hazmat which is more hassle but checks are finally being deposited

 

I hear a lotta doors swing wide open around day 365 lol

 

Had a fun unload last night... had to deliver some acid to michgan did my pretrip and upon first glance everything was ok. Get to the customer and get ready to unload and 1. All of the ecolab customers have a 2 inch fill line which is fine cause i have the fitting for it but this was the first trailer I’d ever had that had 2 inch connectors also... told them I wouldn’t be able to deliver cause I don’t have multiples of the fitting. Since being in the account I’ve been asking for two inch hoses and they never have em in stock. They call some people and I end up on the phone with the ecolab guy and he tells me they have it written along the lines of if they run out of product they charge Schneider somewhere along the lines of $30,000 per hour.... sheeeesh, so they were scrambling but the problem was it was 10 at night and I was in the middle of nowhere... only had 1 bar cellular connection. The day was save by the fact that someone found a 2 inch adapter in their tank room and was able to complete delivery. So I then scramble back to Gary to park for the night and coming into the gate they tell me the trailer has a open work order and the trailer guys won’t be in till the morning. So I gotta see if they’re gonna work on it cause it still has acid in it

 

Yea at one point I had 10 hoses but I think the 7 that I have now will do. I’ve never seen extra fittings or a 2 inch hose left around. Plenty of gloves though
