Western express

He should look at the LTL's in Houston too before he goes out on the road for weeks at a time and you never get to see him.

 

Where did you get that from?

 

Indian River Transport
Freymiller
McCurdy M.W. & Co. - Houston, TX
WEL
K&B

 

Between Western and WEL, go with WEL. Western Express is a second-chance outfit. Low pay, micromanagement, and not very happy employees on both sides of the Qualcomm. WEL will treat you right; I worked there and would go back.

 

I heard WEL had a reputation for short runs. Plus they're a reefer outfit so lots of long waiting

A WEL driver parks near my house when he's on hometime....which seems to be all the time. I have no idea how he makes any money because his truck/trailer is parked there EVERY single time I drive by. Even if he had a regional run that's still ridiculous.

 

That's what I wanted to know.

 

I have been reading about the oil fields a lot lately. It is a shame what our government is doing in terms of limiting refinery permits, and not getting the USA 100% independent. The refineries barely keep up, and the government wants them to produce regional boutique on top of that. Meanwhile the speculators & investors get rich off of this by volume buying, and manipulating prices. Then the local governments got greedy again by increasing state taxes while the prices were low, knowing that the average person wouldn't care because they were elated with lower fuel costs overall.

Wink Wink.......... we gotcha again folks!

Again.....meanwhile.......Oil field workers, and truckers are sent packing after a few years of hype and hope!

Hope things work out bridustin14.

 

I jus quit western. In fact westerns lease program is trying to get me for truck abandonment cus they wouldn work me. Their shops... be expecting to sit for a week or 2. A turbo on an international isn under warrant, least it was when I stopped mechanicing, some one had the air breather tube clamps loose. Some one knew the turbo was out and it was in the shop. I can put two and two together. Been thru 4 Turcks in a month and half spand. Then they tried to stick me in another after I fueled. Did the same this g in this last truck I'm sitting with. Had 2 weeks of warranty left on the 30 day contracted. Its by law to have that in place. The company made me sit for two weeks. I left the shop to run loads. I got the load and drove. I get to Lexington and reallized a voice mail. Saying come to Nashville with the load. I'm head in in the same directing I'll set with the load for securement till some one comes. I. Not abandoning. The truck needs work, I pulled in a shop. And quit, the truck is under servalence. Quitting and abandoning are two different meanings. Go some where els man, trust me.
