    Who would you pick? Western Express or Knight Transportation? I'm wanting to do dry van but Knight offer reefer as well.

    None of them. Knight with a reputation for certain Doctrines by rumor and WE would have to be out of desperation. Witness recent threads about them.

    If I ever go back which isnt going to happen, it will be with McKesson for high value medicine loads.

    I’ll humor you and say Knight but I bet you actually have more choices than that.

    Ive done it. Im a #### good meat cook, I always cook the patties slightly beyond company timer and spice them a little bit the way they like it out front. Nary a complaint.

    All I needed is to be left alone and the politics is BS in a hot bed such as that. 4 hours of listening to everyone gripe about how the manager somehow stabs them on half time sheets. Crying for more hours.

    I bet you can run the joint 24/7 and you will still hear the crying.

    Talk to Chinatown and get a real job. Funny thing, I just saw a WE flatbedder with a spread make a beautiful right turn in heavy city traffic, only to find out the road he just turned down was closed for construction. Kinda wish I had time to help him back out.Next time.

    Yes, only two choices since the local job I would have had got filled. Surely Knight is better than Western Express? (I worked at McDonalds once and good luck making a decent living there..) It sucks for if anything the complaining customers because you made the burger wrong or the idiotic lazy power tripping managers.
