You should get paid for the miles you ran from and back to NC, it wasn't your fault.

trust me... i can't make up stuff like that.. but i will say this much.. I see ALOT of Schneider System Guys Including O/O and Leased ..Parked for long periods of time for the past month.. i don't do 10 hr breaks at Truck stops alot but for example, about a month ago i stopped at the Triple T on the other side of the Bay Bridge off of 301... I got there at 7:15 A.M. and there was a O/O and a System Guy there, i left at 8:00 P.M. because my load wasn't ready until and they was still sitting there, same spot and all.... Then at the T/A last week the same Schneider truck was parked in the same spot with the same guy sitting and watch TV from 5:00 A.M to 10:00 P.M. that day!!! Hey they might of all been waiting on something or hell maybe had just got there before me.. not sure but they are sure sitting alot!!!

But he said he called and told them get the damn Qualcomm out of his truck... i dont know if thats an L/O or O/O... Maybe you can answer that GMAN...

A lease operator doesn't own the truck so he doesn't have much say as to what goes in or out of the truck. All he does is pay for his companies truck. The owner operator owns the truck and can put anything into his truck or have something taken out. My guess is that the guy was an owner operator.

been running into more loads that dont pay what they say they do on the computer when i book them......ive asked around to other o/o's at SNI and up until recently they havent had a problem......they had same problem i do now....loads that book at one price and SNI pays less on payday......i call in and ask and all they say is its the fuel surcharge?????? Thankfully ive been approved to go to mercer BUT i know flat bed is very slow right now and i need to wait until it picks up........ i feel im owed over $1200 from SNI over the past few months for loads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If it was me I would be contacting OOIDA, if you accept a load with a price attached to it, that is what it should pay.

How are the rates holding up?

well the rates arent that great to begin with on ALOT of loads.

out of chicago(which is where i gauge what alot of loads should pay,just personally) rates to the NE are about 1.40-1.60

to the SE 1.15 to 1.30

to tx/la 1.30. to 1.35 all of this is with fuel surcharge.

What happens is i book load IE says it pays 930$ but i look at my statement and im paid 890$ i know thats only $40 to some but if it happens over and over, then it adds up.

i feel if it pays 900$ then on my statement it should say 900$ not 899!!!!

agreed. wow those rates are not good.

rates have plummeted dramatically!!!!!!!! i dont know whats going on, but rates started to go down around october. You are LUCKY to get 1.00 per mile coming out of the southeast going anywhere.!!!!!!

It's called desperation, guys are taking it just to be moving. sooner or later it will catch up with them.

yeah i realize that from talking to some of the owner operators at SNI,,, i think part of problem is these guys lease these trucks from SNI and feel they HAVE to take loads just to keep moving to pay that 600$ a week truck payment!!!! But it drags o/o's like me down who understand the freight game!!:) If things werent so slow id take my truck down to charlotte and have them take their stickers/qualcomm off my truck! Hoping Flats pick up soon!!!
