remind me not to get on your bad side
I was on a Schneider Dedicated account for about a year. it wasn't bad, but expect to make less than the system drivers. most people want a dedicated account, so they tend to be willing to work for less.
schneider knows it, that's how they work it. it's not good or bad, just business.
if you want to be home more and have a more structured schedule, you're going to have to do it for less.
Basically, what's more important, hometime or money? If you want both, Schneider probably isn't the place for you.
Well, that's not entirely true. some dedicated accounts can get you 3000 miles per week, but that's not guaranteed. The real money at Schneider is in team driving, afaik.

Yeah I'm bullshitting alright. Considering the schneider recruting team must have been lying when they said I was assigned to the account when they called Wednesday.
People like belpre have miserable lives so they do everything possible to try to bring others down with them. You must really hate your job therefore you try to make others feel bad about theirs.

Most of the time my check valve operates fairly well WW. :wink: :lol:

Whenever I see ZW start to get out of line again, it seems to pop right off! :twisted:

Maybe I should take a 'time out' after reading ZW's blather. :wink: :P

A time-out? I think that would be letting you off too easy. :wink:

I have no experience driving class a and have heard some bad things about this dedicated account and advice would definitely be welcomed. Thanks!

For the record...I say get your Tank, Haz-Mat and TWIC card, and go with Schneider Bulk. Tanks are going to make you more money in the long run. Schneider has some good trainers in the bulk division, you will see home as often as you want pulling tanks, plus...you get paid for waiting.
