    If you guys had ever had back surgery you wouldn't be saying how easy it is.

    It's new furniture in the box.U just use a 2 wheeler to get it to the back of the trl.Or just spin it so they can come in the trl and get it.Stick haulin is so easy,Most of the time it takes longer to open your doors and back in than it takes to get the stop off.Easy money :biggrin_25523: But dont get mislead.Truck driving is a job. All jobs have certain things you have to do.

    I am the same way. I am a self-starter and do a lot better doing things on my own without someone breathing down my neck. I am not saying that is a bad thing, it's just not for me. Give me the tools, knowledge, resources to do the job and I will get it done safely and on time.

    Starting out at .25 cpm? That is ridiculous. That is 1990 wages. I feel sorry for you all.

    Even for beginners, I don't see how you can work that cheap.

    Don't feel sorry for us my last Pay check was $899 TAKE HOME, you should feel sry for the guys that work at other companies that get .25cpm and bring home $200-$300 a week :biggrin_2559:

    I am not a big fan of the no trainer thing they have going on but overall I really haven't heard bad stuff about the company. Most of these guys all sound happy working there and that's what counts. If I were them I would be keeping it a secret! They also have a fairly decent safety rating. So these guys are happy and claim to be making money I don't see anything wrong there! So they move around a little bit of furniture. Sounds like a good way to stay in shape out there! On top of it all their equipment seems fairly decent too. I might not recommend them to a new driver but I surely wouldn't hesitate recommending them to anyone with experience. That's just my personal opinion. I do not work for them but that's my vibe. Keep up the good work Gents!

    Well I guess it's all a trade off. Yes I think .25cpm is pretty darn low but if WS has the miles for you to run to make take home pay like $899, I will sacrifice the extra .10cpm to not be shacked up with some dirty, nasty trainer. I am not saying they are all like that but some of the stories I have read on here and the way my luck goes...I'm just saying:biggrin_25523:

    Like Chompi says, it is obviously working for Watkins Shepherd, the no trainer deal.

    i hear that, I'd rather do a little more work and make allot more money, and not have to deal with the trainer. In all honesty I haven't had one problem that haveing a trainer with me could have or would have changed...
