My Werner experience

After getting a run around at the terminal due to the truck not having a prepass I called my fleet manager, who told me she had a prepass so I didn't have to wait 3 more days at the hotel, she also advised me the truck I'm in has been sold and I'll be taking it to Atlanta to swap it for a brand new truck. I hope I can tolerate the butt juice all the way up there lol the terminal told me I'd be in the junker for 20 days, my fleet manager told me she'd get me to Atlanta asap. So I called the terminal and they won't let me leave with the truck because I took a road test and now have to have a 10 hour break. I don't see why it was 5 miles but whatever. I'm just glad I have a good fleet manager and dispatcher I've worked with during training. So hopefully soon I'll be posting pics of my new truck, for those who wish to see. Dealing with the equipment people at the terminal has been a nightmare. However the ladies in safety are awesome, I had a great day until I thought I was getting the crap truck permanently. I feel a lot better knowing i only have to do maybe one load in it. I didn't mean to sound like a crybaby earlier but that truck is seriously disgusting.

 

Don't know if anyone reads this anymore. I'm currently at a truck stop I'm delivering my first solo dollar general load in the morning. I'll update soon

 

Same in Lakeland. Today was my first solo load and it SUCKED seemed like anything that could've gone wrong did. Hopefully Tuesday will be better

 

The registration expires this month, but there's so many things that went wrong with it just today I'm honing to ask Monday if they can route me to the terminal

 

My training was In a 2015 cascadia, it had a 10 speed, my current truck is a 2013 cascadia with a 10 speed, my new truck should hopefully be brand new and automatic.
