    My only observations about Werner are:

    -they screwed my uncle over in the '90s

    -their max pay is .02/mi more than I'm making, fresh out of truck driving school.

    -A company that lets you be a trainer after 6 months of OTR experience must be desperate for trainers. Why would they be desperate for trainers? Perhaps because they can't keep drivers in their seats for very long? That's my best guess. And rookies training rookies...that's a bad situation.

    But you know what they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

    Maybe because OTR trucking for the bottom feeders is a terrible way to make a living? Just a wild guess.

    You ride with no helmet?
