I need to use these guys ( Western Exp.) to get back on the road. I like you have a CDL-A and can drive a truck - but have been off the road too long and need to use thier "Refresher" course and they are the only ones offering it it seems -
Just make sure you apply for food stamps before you head off to oreintation so your family can eat while your "doing your sentence" with WE

Well, decided to try and stick it out for 3 more months... Still at WE. Had to beg to be routed through the shop to get my 2014 IFTA stickers and not expired paperwork. They tried to give me the whole "you have a 30 day grace period" schtick so I would just keep driving a few more weeks without current paperwork and stickers.

Does Schneider have any local work in the Philly area? Last weeks paycheck after benefits and taxe and 6days in a truck...$0.00! Tomorrows paycheck....just under a hundred bucks! Follow the rules and do things the way the law says they have to be done and this company will starve you out. Broke down yet again(4th time this week). Did my pretrip on a trailer I'm picking up and two flats, lights out, 5 months out of inspection and a brake chamber falling off....and guess who gets to sit with it making $35 a day......

Still waiting on my poor tractor to quit on me, now 22,000 miles past it's Pm

But if your one of those wreckless idiots that doesn't even know what a pretrip is or you just don't care you'll get 2500 miles a week...you'll have so many tickets that you wont be able to go anywhere else but you will get the miles here
MrIT Thanks this. -
Wow, that really sucks Cam. I was thinking about giving trucking another shot and saw a few WE craigslist ads advertising "refresher course"... but LOL, it's stories like yours that make me reconsider.
