    I'm contemplating going with Watkins/Shepard after I get out of the Army, and was wondering what is the starting pay for a student coming in to the company?

    That's for having no experience. Experienced drivers start out higher.

    Brand-new drivers with Watkins in Shepard get $.29 per mile, not $.25.

    Seems like I heard they pay hub miles and run paper though, am I right with that?
