    Ya it just seems odd. im not judging anyone but youd think a second chance company would have a higher fail rate with hair testing. and its more espensive, kinda goes against the mega carrier save money idea, normally they dont do it till its forced.

    I finished orientation today and got hired on with Western Express. We have thanksgiving off and they are taking us out to eat at Shoneys. Never eaten there before. I will start the 3 day flatbed training next. After that up to 4 weeks driving with a trainer. The pay is $500/week in training. After that it is .40cpm. I really hope this will work out. But hey, if it doesn't, I will keep on trying with someone else! Trying to stay in a positive attitude and outlook. I'll make my luck if I have too!

    Happy thanksgiving to you all! Be safe out there!!!
     
    Veryblessed and Chinatown Thank this.

    Shoneys is kinda like the southern version of Denny's. Nothing really to wire home about

    I finished training and was assigned a trainer. Training consisted of learning how to secure and tarp different types of loads. I will meet my trainer Tuesday. Will keep you up to date. If you have any questions please ask. Be safe out there!
