    no problem, i have been there before and left due to a dm telling me i had to run ilegal and when i said no he made me set, and then he told me that if i wanted to work there then i will run the way he says or sit....even if that meant running ilegal.....this was all over the qualcom, when i went to the big boss and pointed this out and they looked it up and read and seen it was true, all they did was switch me to another dm...and then let me sit until i was froced to quit due to no money coming in.....so too make it short...i will just stay away from them.....some might not have a problem like that or with that....when it comes to any company everyone has a story to tell.....thanks for the offer and letting me know, ....

    dms and dispatchers dont care if you run illegal or not. I had a hawk hit my windshield, and #### near came thru it. It left about 26 intersecting cracks. Two is illegal. My dispatcher kept beatin around the bush and then finally just told me "you need to figure out what you can do and go with it" so I delivered the load. The cracks were on the passenger side so I could see just fine but I knew DOT would get on me. Anyway, I ended up driving like that for a month until they sent me to Omaha to get it fixed and that is where everything went downhill for me, starting with the fuel pump incident lol. I think sitting up there for 3 days playing the free arcade rotted my brain and I just made a careless mistake. **** happens.

    u might think your incidents are minor but each one cost werner money and you had many in a short time spand. unfortunately your options will be limited but might be better choices then the one u mentioned. good luck.

    Yea i'm beginning to see the big picture. It's not necessarily the company itself that doesn't to hire me, its the fact the insurance they use won't insure me. Marten said they could hire me in a year but that could change. I've been looking into other things lately, like the Marines. OoRah!
