Why Did You Quit Schneider?

Snowflakes you all..

 

I applied to these ***clowns two years ago when I started driving. They sent me a blunt email a couple of days after I applied that stated and I quote:"Schneider Has Denied Your Application"(not even a phone call-says A LOT for the content of their character). I guess it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Fast forward two years later,they're still sending me stuff in the
mail trying to get me to sign on with them.
But I've found a good use for that,especially at truck stops that don't have toilet paper in the bathrooms.
See you in about 45 minutes...

 

This is the most entertaining and informative thread I've read on here in a long time - thank you,42

 

Entertaining, definitely. Informative? Not really

 

I quit because I was offered a job that paid better. I enjoyed Schneider. I was on the bulk side and I have nothing bad to say about them. I was at. 45 cpm when I left. Trimac was offering me. 65 cpm. The difference was just too great for me to justify.

 

Definition of "no brainer".

 

Honest question. Why decrease by 7-8%? On 3k miles it's 210-240 miles which equals to $105-120 a week or $5000-6000 a year.That's like a month of working for free!

 

I was a company driver for them from late 2007 until early 2012.

At the time I hired on, I had been out of trucking for over three years, and they gave me a chance to come back as an experienced driver if I could pass a road test, which I did. I ultimately left because I could do better elsewhere, and I did so,at Crete by about 10k dollars a year, no exaggeration. My last two years of earnings at SNI were within $85 dollars of one another. I liked the people I worked with, never had any serious equipment complaints, and got home when needed. But the difference in potential earnings was too great to ignore.

 

Yeah...
And you're just gonna' love my snowballs...

 

I started with Schneider in 2011, regional dry van. A year later I transfered over to the Viracon flatbed account. The pay was good and I really liked the flatbed work. The trailers had rolling tarps so no hand tarping. At times it felt like I was working for a small company....until we had to deal with Green Bay with all of their micro managing. In the end I got tired of all the corporate bs and in 2015 decided to move on, found sonething that paid just as well.
