They don't have any local accounts in my area. Not sure who services my local stores. Only truck I've seen at one was a Werner, so that's probably who does it.

Well, yesterday was my last day at Schneider. It's been a very interesting year to say the least. I have to say they were incredible at my departure. Very supportive, offered to have me come back any time, and I even got to drive my truck one more time. π I couldn't believe how badly they wanted me to stay, they basically offered me any account I wanted, told me they'd switch my leader if that was the issue, but after I explained how it was the whole being away from home, not showering every day, (which was starting to give me skin rashes), and suddenly developing kidney stones, which is what sent me over the top, they were very understanding. They also told me that when I move, if I'm near a Schneider facility that has home daily accounts, I'd be able to come back if I wanted. Can't say enough about how helpful they've been getting started, and teaching me over the past year. They really bent over backwards for me.

That's funny guys because my job is also tied to an Amazon logistics contractor. I'll be managing dispatchers and drivers.

Looks like Iβll be taking this position. I canβt pass up being home with my family every night. Iβm really gonna miss driving the truck though. I might have to get an old semi to pull an RV trailer now. π

Half of us will be unemployed in 5 years.
πππ Every time my phone, computer, Qualcomm, etc freezes up and crashes, I laugh at the driverless truck concept again. π€£ Maybe in 30 years. Maybe never.

Dude. I have the same issue. I had to leave a receiver the other day and had no idea of my next assignment. Didn't know where I could wait so I went to a flying J because dispatch told me that I wouldn't get anything until the morning. As soon as I parked and did a post trip, the assignment comes through. Exactly in the opposite direction. This is why I wish I could have my pickups in advance so I could better plan.

All my paperwork has been submitted clearing me to return to work. Hopefully I can roll in the morning. I'll drink more and just pull over when I have to. Thanks guys!
