    I have been with werner for about 6 months (post training) and working the family dollar acct for about 2 months, was reluctant to take it at first since all the werner drivers i had talked to beforehand said 'whatever you do, stay away from the family dollar acct', but it hasnt been too bad. A few days ago the manager asked me if I would like to go permanent or go back to 48. I was planning on going back to all 48 because I heard you cant get back on all 48 once you leave, or its difficult, but after reading the recent posts was thinking maybe I should just be happy with what I have, what do you guys think? Anyone working all 48 right now, and are you still getting any loads?

    Sorry for the late reply but yes, was solo all 48, have decided I definitely want to go back now except they want to keep me on for a bit longer due to being short on drivers, so maybe you can take my place :) Get your backing down and get help from the fd employees as well, GOAL!! There are some tricky locations.
    I have a min weekly payment w fd as a temp so the pay has been better compared to 48 but its no longer worth it, want to try dollar general though if they open some locations near home.
