    Hey Big ...
    I'm going there on Monday as well. I researched this company pretty thoroughly. The only thing that came up with anyone I talked to is that you won't get rich driving for them .... but they hand out no bs, and are straight with you. I found my recruiter Doug, as well as everyone else very helpful and knowledgeable. I'm looking foward to being there.

    Thanks bravo.
    I was wondering, a gentleman from jax fl went to orientation about 2 months ago.
    He went to Arkansas, but he needed training. Thanks

    I applied with WSE at the beginning of Dec. Then it took another week and a half to get ahold of the recruiter. He told me that they were on hold til January for the holidays and I should call back then. I'll be calling back tomorrow.

    After reading all the post of this forum, you are still going to work for a bottom feeder company.
