    Thank you for that info. I would probably checkout Knight. Only because I think Werner position in my area is Dollar General.

    Those larger fleets usually have a lot of different accounts (been there, seen that).

    I would not automatically assume the worst.

    For example: instead of DG -- it may instead be either Home Depot, or Lowe's...or yet another big-box retailer.

    Those gigs are just fine for a beginner.

    The point here being -- in the present freight environment -- being TOO picky may come back to bite you....OR....you may leave a perfectly worthwhile opportunity on the table.
