No More Whining

Do you really expect me to believe that all you took home for the last 8 months is...$298.00 A month? That's $70.00 a week, $10.00 a day??????????
Get real. What kind if fools do you think your talking to?
IF and I say IF... that is all you took home, then you did'nt work for Werner.

Werner (sp) is only good if you are a trainer. I do know first hand what he is saying. It happened to my husband. We were getting a weekly draw of 200.00 dollars a week, the pay stubs were about another 50.00. I couldn't believe it, my husband was traveling from fla. to Oregon, for 200.00 a week???? How could that be. Also my husband and I were out for weeks, they new that I was with him, put in a 6 week notice for child support court hearing. They said we would be back in time, slowly they brought us towards Fla. and started to bull crap around. Finally they got us a car rental. Lets see we were at one of their termals in Arkansaw had to pay a cab to pick us up at the termal and we had to pay 50.00 to the cab driver. Werner said they would pay for all just we had to pay the cab....... WHAT, anyways they gave the draws to us and when Patrick finished court and got back on the truck (because at this point I truly had enough) they royaly screwed him. He had no pay for 1 month, they said he owed back the car rental money, the gas money, and all tolls. By the way we drove 2 days streight to make court. Patrick went to the termal in Nebraska, quit the job and took a bus home. Also he was starving and werner wouldn'y even give him money for food. I would have to wire the money to him. Werner is no good. They are deceitful, and liers.. Yet when you talk to some of there drivers, they love them. huh????????
I also reported them to the school where patrick got his CDL. license, they were shocked.

Longdayoff. Yes it is real. And the fool here is me for having stayed with Werner Enterprises this long. I drove 48 and Western Regional. Whether you believe it or not is not and issue. I am homeless now, and unable to pay my bills because of a lie that Werner is the real deal. You send me a personal message and I'll meet you at a cafe for coffee in my hometown and I'll bring the paystubs. This is no Bull. Straight up.

Long ago I worked for Covenant Transport for 2 years. I would go to differant terminals to pick up a load or have service work done. I would see people in the trucker's lounge telling me the same kind of things your saying. One time a couple said they had'nt eaten for 3 days because they could not get a draw because they wer'nt under a load, so I go to the terminal manager and tell him to give my load to the couple so they could get a draw. He tell's me that they always cry that they are out of hours and that when they do get a load they turn it down or get sick... It's alway's something he said. He would not give them my load, because he wanted them to quit. I never once took a draw, turned down a load, or run out of hour's.
Trucking is a TOUGH job. Alot of people can't handle it. And I say to you all, If you can't do it... Get out. Do something else, But quit crying about how bad you had it in trucking.

I had a BAD trainer. When I got my first truck, I could'nt even back up. But I had the disire to learn. Mostly I knew if I did'nt do things right I would be dead. So I learned on my own. All I'm saying is that if bad training is your excuse and you can't figure it out... Then you need to find another job.
It has notyhing to do with male ego. There are thousands of woman drivers that drive just as good if not better than men. If your working for a company and taking a draw each week, and are only making $10.00 a day.... then you need to look for something else. But don't knock the trucking industry for your failure. Maybe you just did'nt try hard enough or gave up to soon.

I can agree with what your saying. Not trying to give the industry a bad name, heck everyone in the 4 wheelers do. Anyways, how was your day. Longdayoff be Blessed.

I had a great day. Thank you, hope you did as well.
Went to work at 4:30 got home at 12 noon.
I put in my time in this industry and am now rewarded with a great job for a great company. I get a schedule each week. When I'm done pulling every load, I can go home. I get great pay, holiday pay, and aa large Xmas bonus each year.
Plus I live in the bouborn capital of the world...Bardstown, Ky. What could be better?

Just go to your home page and you can delete any blog you want
!!!!

If what is posted here is true, $2391.00 in 8 months. You did not have to quit. You were eligible for unemployment benefits. You should have filed a claim. That way Werner would have had to make a decision on your status. This is of course as long as the low pay was not a result of refusing loads.

I am still awaiting for longdayoff to meet me for coffee. I have the paystubs. Don't drink coffee? Shoot how about milk longdayoff?

I'm not meeting you any where. If you really are stupid enough to work for a company for 8 month's for $10.00 a day... We don't have any thing in common.
What would I talk to a dumbass like you about over coffee?

Just the kind of response I would expect from you. Put up or shut up. Professionals don't try to talk down to their own. Obviously, your personality is a direct result of inbreeding. Kentucky your home right? What was it first cousins or something? Or maybe drinking some of that hooch you been stillin' down in the holler. You're the dumb-ass here jerk.

Just post your pat stubs here. I can't be seen in the company of a jerk like you.

That's pay stubs longdayoffyourrocker! Can't spell can you? Go back to the 3rd grade loser!
