at Watkins your going to gross $40,000 to $50,000 your first year, depending on:
A. How Hard You Run
B. How Long You Stay Out
C. How well you manage your time and Log Book
D. How well you communicate with Dispatch
at werner $200 -$300 a week take home paychecks are common. Werner has also been known to Destroy drivers on their DAC's, where as at Watkins unless you do something incredibly stupid they wont put anything on there when you leave....

heres some advice...when you park at the terminal for your hometime, take ALL your stuff out and leave the door unlocked, atleast that way when you get back the theiving scum that break into trucks in the sheety terminal location wont have busted your locks and wasted a day for you..!!
(dont really leave you door unlocked, but you get my point, and yes, check out AT's thread! -
Oh ok Yeah I wasn't aware that the school wasn't running anymore. Ill read around this thread some more. From info I've gathered around here W&S seems like a pretty solid company compared to some others. Thanks for the info.American-Trucker Thanks this.

Ha I've seen AuburnTigers Videos before. Good stuff!

Does W/S use elogs?
-
Nope...Paper!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Does W.S. primarily use ten speed transmission? Will I get a ten speed for my orientation?
Thanks -
Yes and yes you'll use a 10 speed in orientation.
-
Hell Ya!!!!!!! Im sure a thirteen speed would be awesome for climbing hills, but I can drive a ten in my sleep. So school and hopefully orientation with w.s. should be fun.
Thank You.
I almost made the decision to go to May, glad I didn't. All i've heard is wonderful things about W.S., but i hope they don't keep hiring so many drivers they turn into a Swift, England, or May, the bottom feeders.
