    Out of Cypress Truck Lines and Western Express who is the lesser of two evils? I have seen more on western express.....most of it bad. I aint seen that much on here about cypress but what is on here is not so good. This might be able to shed some light on a job for some rookies wanting to get into flat bed. As well as help me..thanx yall

    Don't know what to tell you, Cypress is a job! They screwed me a few weeks ago with trying to get to a family gathering that was important, with that said. I have a job, and I am reminded of that on a weekly bases. I have just deceided if I want time off I will just take vacation. Just so you know, no matter how long you work for Cypress, you only get 2 weeks vacation. If you take any extra time they take your bonus. I just wish they would realize some of us would take time off (unpaid) just to be home with our families. It would be nice not to be punished for it! Again with that said, it is a paying job. So I will stay! At least till the ecomomy gets better if it ever does.

    Depends on if I piss off my dispatcher. I have gotten 3200 in one week, and then I have gotten 1200. I still drive for them and will till things get better or I get to old, which ever comes first. The age is 21 and experinece is 2 years, use to be none, the since the things have gone south, they have gotten picky. No DUI, Accidents, Felonys etc....if you fill out and app, tell the truth, they do check everything and they will dismiss you if you do not cross all t's and dot all i's.
