    Hey guys My names Rick. I'm 23 and just got my CDL out of PA. I went to SAGE truck driving school out of phoenixville pa and had a great instructor I've done a lot with trucks in the past few years but never really drove one except for in a parking lot. I used to work on them with my friend and his dad, I also got to drive a straight crane/sign truck for a company for a few years. I love driving and I love the road, I singed on with Warner as i hear there a great company got get your OTR experience with. Are there any Warner drivers on here?

    Well, Welcome aboard here Rick, You will enjoy this site very much. You wont find a better place for advice. Sometimes the advice will not be all smiles, and sometimes it will make your day. The drivers on this board are awesome. Doesn`t get any better. Good Luck Rick, and have fun here.

    If you just signed on with them, you should really know their name.....It's WERNER, not WARNER. Although you're not the first to misspell/pronounce it. Anyway, good luck with your new adventure.

    It was misspelled on one of the pieces of paper used to sign your life away when I went through their orientation too.

    Actually Warner is a better spelling ,more appropriate for the bottom feeding outfit that they are.

    We have a few recruiters in at school over the past 3 weeks. Almost all have seemed professional. You have to, of course, sift through much of what they to get to the facts. However, the Werner guy just came off like a used car salesman. My apologies to used car salesmen everywhere...............
