Gavin was my recruiter too, very easy going but straightforward kind of guy. I came to WSE with about 9 or 10 months of experience, so I didn't...
WSE is pretty decent, I've been with them since August. Hauling reefer has its ups and downs, but it does give you the ability to pull dry loads...
I haven't been on this site in a week or so, I had no idea this thread had been updated...LOL I am the OP, and I just want to re-iterate that the...
This is true. I started with them in Oct under the impression that I'd be going to orientation in Hickory.... but ended up being sent to NJ. No...
If you're talking about the super singles, I don't have them on my truck. But I think I can understand why they might not be so great on the...
Enough said.
Sayreville is definitely the tightest to back into. But Vern will have you guys practicing your backing while you're there, so you'll get used to...
Minus, I did the 10 day in Sayreville, NJ in October pretty much for the reasons you already mentioned. I didn't want to spend a month or more...
A lot of the newer trucks (1800 or so and up) have APUs. I wasn't lucky enough to get one, I have a 1600 series truck. After talking to a few...
They don't check your heart and BP afterwards, they're just making sure you're capable. I thought it was a little silly at first, but after I got...
Boughtout, congratulations.... I finished my 10 day orientation a few weeks back. They routed me home for a couple days and I've been out on the...
It seems like it's the norm for Watkins and Shepard to send drivers out making local deliveries in a sleeper tractor with a 53 foot trailer. I've...
It was explained to us that they don't really expect or ask you to chain up and keep going, the driver has discretion. All they ask is that you...
Harley, I'm going on day two of the ten day orientation in NJ. Things haven't been rosy for the guys that finished up here last week. One guy...
H4L, good to hear from you again. Sounds like you're having a bit of a rough start, I hope things get better for you real soon. Please keep us...
Made it to Sayreville, NJ a few hours ago. There are supposed to be four of us altogether, but right now it's just me and another guy. The two...
Anyone know what percentage of their trucks are equipped with APUs? What brand of APU do they use? I'm heading to Sayreville tomorrow morning...
Hogster, thanks for the heads up. I'm leaving Sunday for the 10 day orientation in NJ, so I guess I'll bring my laptop as well. It'll be...
I know what you mean, my HPE test substituted my workout for that day....LOL H4L hasn't posted in a few days... I guess by now he's gotten his...
I had no experience whatsoever before going to a local truck driving school. I did well in school and passed my road test with flying colors....
