It's really only the bottom feeding OTR companies that have a hard time keeping drivers that hold boilerplate orientations. Because of their sky-high turnover rates they've determined this to be the cheapest way to get as many (potentially) qualified people to show up as possible. These are all cheap-freight companies that operate on thin margins and it permeates all the way down to their hiring practices. I myself attended and passed W/S's 10-day orientation right out of driving school in 2011, and I will say the whole thing was a pretty crazy experience I wouldn't have any interest in doing again, but at the time it was all part of the learning process that everybody has to go through. Once you reach a certain point in your driving career you have no interest in working for any of these types of big box trucking outfits, at least for me. And once you've worked for 2 or 3 of them like I have you realize they're all peddling the same nonsense.Last edited: Jan 23, 2016

I've been driving team with my boyfriend since October. The only real issue we have is their lack of communication. But we get good loads and stay running most of the time.
