    Use and abuse is all i can say....they say no 48 state running, so everyone now is Regional...less pay, but run you 48 states....at 6 months with them they were paying .15 mt and with per diem .22 loaded...frikking poverty wages....run don't walk....the dispatchers think that if their computer doesn't slide off their desk then you can run...no matter what...I got tired of being treated as a second class citizen.:biggrin_25512:

    I bailed on em awhile back when they started cutting back on pay.
    It's our own fault, I ain't pro Union but so long as drivers keep signing on for this crap than craps what we get.

    I am new to this , my questrion would be, after talking with werner, they said Regional pay sliding long and short hauls 26 cpm to 40cpm , averaging to be 30 to 31... At least that's what they said before setting up orientation...... west regional.......
    The more I read the more I find they will say anything to get you there.......
    Thanks for all the info

    It's a good idea to do your homework before signing with ANY company.

    Sliding is the shorter the run, the more you'll get per mile.If you do have to sign on for something like this, please do yourself a favor and keep very close track of each trip,the miles,the stopover,etc. If not, I can guarantee you'll be getting nicked on each and every pay check. Good luck buddy,and stay safe regardless of who you sign on with right out of school.Don't let them push you,as it's your future and your CDL, not your dispatchers...
