    Thanks for the comments on Covanant.

    Interstate's website info on newbie driver's qualification's are inaccurate.
    Phone recruiter said no moving violations for 1 yr. for newbies-oh well.

    I think I might be OK with FFE however. Submitted an app. so who knows.

    I just don't want to be locked in to either Covanant or Werner.
    Both of their recruiter's say not to worry about unfavorable comments on websites such as this. Guess that's what they are supposed to say though.

    Keep those suggestions coming.

    Thanks all...

    Sorry tichdaddy. I had no idea. Guess that is for experienced drivers. My brother-in-law drives for Werner and honestly they aren't that bad. My dh and I didn't go with them because they wouldn't train us together. Brother-in-law is a trainer for them and has been there for almost 2 years now. He hasn't had any problems and gets tons of miles. Now I will say that his hometime isn't the best, but I also think that is partly because he prefers to stay out. I think he became a trainer though because the money driving solo wasn't that great. But he did tell us that he is getting better treatment than his brother (my other brother-in-law) that is at USA. I think if you have determination and a good attitude you could make it at Werner. There is definitely worst out there.
