    With the economy slowing a little are you new grads driving/training for Werner getting miles or just doing alot of waiting? Swift has twice the number of rigs so I'm trying to decide between the two.

    Getting info from the field real-time helps the case.

    Thanks

    I just came back from my first part of training two days ago. While I was out with a werner trainer we had a minimum of 3000 miles per week. My trainer had a dedicated account so that may be the reason why we had so many miles. As for waiting for a trainer, I finished my training on a Tuesday, and Thursday morning (early morning) I was on the truck.

    Do you like the training you've received so far?

    How has your experience been to this point at Werner?

    Thanks
