    DO NOT LEASE ON HERE !!!

    I don't know about company drivers but I would tell you never to lease on with Western Flyer Express. I am posting this to warn others not to make the same mistake that I did.

    They tell you an orientation that you'll make $0.55 per mile as a lease driver. I was getting checks at $0.30 cpm, $0.28, $0.22 and even one check where I only made $0.08 cpm.

    They will screw you on the miles that you drive as well. I was driving anywhere from 200 to 400 miles each week that I wasn't getting paid for because of their routing software. That means I wasn't getting paid plus I had to pay for the extra fuel to drive the extra miles.

    This is a huge company now that treats their drivers pretty much like livestock. Every week another 20 year 30 drivers are flushed through the system.

    There are several other stupid things that will drive you crazy as well but the bottom line is stay away from leasing with this company..

    I'm just a dumb company driver, but why in the hell would anyone lease on with a company after they are told that they would only get 55cpm? I've made that and then some with companies as a percentage driver on a w2

    If you're gullible enough to believe that a ccompany can tell you what you'll make after expenses..then you get what you asked for...
