    My current employer is looking to cut my hours. So I've been looking for a new job. Western Express offered me a Northeast Regional position,saying I'd be home every weekend and take home between$950-$1200 per week. Called Schneider National Intermodal and was offered .$44 per mile,$30 per load plus some sort of performance bonus. I could work either Sunday thru Thursday or Tuesday thru Saturday. Could make $65000 a year. Is this true? I'm leaning towards Schneider. Any advice?

    I'd go with Schneider, based on what you posted; no question about it.

    I would go with Schneider but check out Hirschbach motor lines. According to their hiring area, you should be getting home every 5-7 days.

    It's my understanding that most of Western Express' van division runs Northeast Regional. Poland Springs bottled water is the biggest dry box account they have, and they pull lots of trailers out of Maine to service the account.

    Water loads are massively heavy and generally suck with a gutted truck...just sayin'.

    I got an automated phone call from Western Express yesterday offering a $3000 sign on bonus. Are they getting desperate?
