Tell me sumpthin', ........ does tellin' an F/M, STL, dispatcher, travel agent, or whatever, really work?
A dispatcher by whatever other name they're called, isn't a person to make angry or get them upset. It's not wise to leave a bad taste in a dispatcher's mouth. Dispatchers can make or break a Big truck truck driver.
Personally, I've never used the "Tell 'Em" approach. I've relied on the 'Ask To Discuss A Situation' method, in person if possible. Regardless of the outcome of a meeting, I "tell" 'em Thank you.
I don't "tell" 'em how to run the company. They'd have to pay me for those services. I don't clean up shabby companies for nuthin'.
Besides, lj, --- the originator of this thread, has probably moved on by now. If lj is still with Werner after almost six years, he doesn't seem to be complainin' 'bout it anymore.

well I have a little bit to say about all that I have read on this page,to start,my husband did have a really good trainer compared to what we have heard from others. As far as the pay,,,,what a freakin joke,,what pay,my husband worked (drove) a total of 70 hours this week,,his pay was a whopping $225.00,,to me,thats just crazy,I would have told them where to go real fast,however,my husband cant do that,out of fear of not being able to find another job,due to being fresh out of school ,he has no accidents and a great driving record,but only been driving for a little under 6 months,there has been weeks of only $95 bucks ,and he is driving,not sitting,,also ,,his truck was a pig pin when he got it,we had to clean it,,they said they would give him the money back for cleaning it,,they lied,,the money he makes sucks for the sacrfices he has had to make ,,also I didnt read about this,but be carefull,you will tell them your out of time and magicaly,,you will have 5 hours so you can do what they want you to,,then these idiots turn around and fine my husband,,honestly I see nothing good about Werner,,not one thing,,that whole thing Werner cares,,,hahahahahahahahah,,,thats a bad joke !!!

I have known a truck driver friend who is at least 4 bills and his personal hygene is disgusting. I can't even be in the same room with him. He is a smoker and the inside of his truck looked like a bomb exploded in there. He's a nice guy but there is no excuse for not taking a shower and keeping clean. When he gets fuel he can get a free shower but he doesn't take it. My husband has cleaned out trucks that looked like the previous driver has peed all over everything and left his pee jugs full and in the truck. My husband is not a smoker and it is really hard to get that smell out of the leather and the seats of his truck. I grew up with truckers and I know the life. I know that you also need to be presentable to your customer because you are representing your company. No one wants to deal with a disgusting foul smelling trucker. Just a thought....

I quit werner today due to the horrible truck they tried to give me. Werner is ridiculous. Training and trying to make a paycheck from.
