    Watkins told me I was good to come up and a day later they suddenly said they weren't going to hire me as I was booking my plane ticket there for the next day. As these guys said, you're not hired until you jump through all of the hoops.

    Leave your current job on VERY good terms, you may need it back. Orientation, physical, wee-wee test, road test, keys to truck and employee number, now you're hired.

    Yep. You're not hired usually until you have a fuel card and a key to a truck.

    W/s isnt like most companies they dont make a habbit of sending drivers home. At least in conover they hate doing it.

    Good luck, w/s is a great company.

    Just prepared for what you're about to be getting in to! W/S is one of those LTL companies who like to deliver heavy things to places not built for a truck.
    I think instead of a duck walk, they should have a sofa walk as part of orientation.....
