    :biggrin_2551: It seems that Werner kid is more concerned with getting all those Government Tax Credits, that he does everything he can so that the newer solo driver's will quit ! Werner gives old beat up tractors needing work to the new guy's and tell's the mechanic 's to put them at the bottom of the list when they need repairs ! I have had my tractor for 4 weeks now and it's been it the shop 3 times for the same problem's for a total of 11 day's ! Werner contract mechanic's are mostly those Mechanic's fresh from school which allows him to receive even more tax credit's. If Werner can keep hiring new drivers every 4 to 6 month's he will make more money that way than he does hauling loads. Werner's Kid is running this company into the ground fast !! :biggrin_2551:

    Werner get's 10k for every new trucker who completes there first load after training period is completed. Werner also get's tax credits for getting certain immigrant's ( middle east & africa ) to become owner operators with those 2 percent government loans pre-approved to those certain groups ! It's all part of Obama's plan to create new jobs in America, it's just that those new jobs aren't going to Americans !! All this is spelled out in his Recovery Plan for those who have taken the time to read it.

    Not sure if werner trains new drivers and locks them into a contract to payback the training costs but that also would net them a good amount of change if you quit/get fired before the contract is up your still on the hook for that also....

    The Students that are Veterans recieve up to 6k back from the government as part of their VA package for serving our great country. Not all students at Werner have gone thru there schools either, I sure didn't !

    Outside of vets, I ain't buying it. I have looked for tax credits and tax breaks for hiring people and could not find any that have to do with students out of mechanic's school, new drivers or hiring middle eastern or african immigrants. I can find tax credits for welfare people, I can find them for disabled but not what you are mentioning.

    If I can find these credits and breaks, I would have 100 trucks on the road.

    That site holds absolutely zero credit. " ask the trucker " cannot show proof of the claimed 26 programs, it's another trucker conspiracy.
