    so far everything is good, really liking their paperless logs or E-logs as they refer to it it is much better then werners setup, orientation is insane with weird stuff i never seen, like the extensive DOT physical that pretty much sent half of orientation students home. lots of learning company policies and stuff before even getting hired. really hope to get a 780 VOLVO but verry few left, I see lots of them siiting in the yard with out US XPress decals on them and rummor has it they are getting rid of them. and mainly sticking with peterbuilts and freights. but we will see what hapens tomorrow

    What are they looking for in the DOT physical and how come they sent half of them home? I'am talking to them right now about going to work for them.

    probably referring to their stress test thing they do. Duck walk gets a lot of people from what I've read.
