    The photos are back up...Werner could not have legally had them deleted because they were taken in a public place.
    Werner chose to paint their name on the truck.
    Werner chose to hire an idiot to drive that truck.
    Werner has no recourse if someone snaps and posts a picture of what that idiot that they hired to drive their truck did with their truck in full view of the public.

    If Werner doesn't like the negative publicity, Maybe Werner ought to raise their standards for hiring drivers out of the gutter!

    Good photo's. That's scary his last 15 minutes driving on the road too. He probably come in there cross eyed and said FI. Last ditch effort. Some just don't have enough sense to know when is when. As soon as I get my other computer fixed I have a picture of a Roehl driver that pulled into an end spot, nose first, with a island curb beside him. The trailer is up on the island, lol.
    I woke up many times in south TX and Mexicans will park 2 deep in front of you. There is no concern in blocking someone in and parking in the driveway. A snowstorm is understandable, but south TX??

    qualcomm does some weird things at times--i installed one and was having trouble gettiing it to intialize--tried everything --ended up calling help desk at qualcomm--or course get some body with english as a second language--he was showing the truck in texas someplace--and try as i might --couldnt convince him it was in western canada--finally got it going--but as with any piece of equipment--they do fail
    if you really want to be creatinve--just use switches on the power wires going to he qcom head--that way you can disable it at will

    Hey man it's hard to find good help when you pay 25 cents per mile! I have seen trucks parked like this one at Werners TERMINALS ... yes it happens all the time ... you should see their drop yards … thank God I got my six months in and left. Its stuff like this that made me was embarrassed to drive a truck with their name on my door!!!!:biggrin_25521:

    The lake is FULL with a killer snow pack in the mountains above. I am planning to start school (American Truck School) in May. I have my eye on a couple of companies that hire in this area. WE shall see if any of them will have me.

    Thanks. I always enjoyed crossing the VFW Memorial Bridge when the lake level was high and I was looking forward to bunk time in Weed. Nice scenery! BOL w/American Truck School and your job hunt.
