Is sch eiders pay-scale as good as Crete's 41 cpm at 1 yr...I have to ask because Schneider's Website is as ambiguous as Werner's ,So they don't list a pay scale they simply say ...VARIES...


If this is true then I'll probably have to be scratching off Crete as a potential employer if I do go back OTR ...

No it is not true.

If they had been bought out in Feb of this year then it would have been all over the industry news long before now.

No, it's NOT true, but it IS hilarious! :lol:

Crete is privately owned by Duane Acklie and has been for decades.

If anything, it would be the other way around.

I doubt that it's true either. Now if you had heard it on Channel 19 instead of reading it in a forum, it would have to be true. Everyone knows that there are never any lies spread there, just 100% honesty... :wink:

I can't believe some of those guys actually think that Schneider bought Crete. There's no way that Schneider had enough dinero to buy Crete/Scaffer/Hunt Transportation, unless they've been dealing crack on the side. :lol:

IMO if Crete did purchase SNI, they would be doing a lot damage control.
I frequent the PD.com chat room, and I talk to alot of people that are just waiting for that contract to be fulfilled. Some are happy, and content with SNI. Others are counting the days till they can jump ship.

Been driving over a year ,And have yet to pruchase a CB... :wink:

If it was true then all red & blue trucks would be sent thru the paint shop and come out "OMAHA ORANGE"!!! Welcome to the Orange Army! :shock: NOPE, Not True.
