I would say call him/her today and get that info cause recruiting isn't usually in on the weekends. Sense your driving in? I would almost bet your definitely gonna need to get this info today. Will you be going to Nashville? Usually if you ride in on the hound the shuttle driver picks you up and gets you situated, not to sure how it goes when you drive yourself there. I mean the weekend guys can help but id rather get this info from recruiting personally, I myself will be driving down when i return on the 30th been away for a year.
red S-10 Thanks this. -
man w/e thread on here is dead. Ive heard alot of bad things on here about them but its all you make of what company you go with. I went with swift awhile back even after reading all the nay sayers about swift. yes i left swift but it was after a year and i enjoyed my time there. swift wasnt for me and after a year off no one would take me except for w/e. and im grateful for that and plan to work my butt off for them. bash me if you must but the main reason im going back to driving is to support my family. I will post all that happens to me down the road w/e to help other drivers out there looking at w/e.

Your exactly right! Every company is what you the driver make of it.. I've worked for western before and will be returning shortly, half the things these "bashers" say isn't even true. Yes w/e is in it to make money, so is every other company out here. W/e is in my opinion a good company, yes some drivers do have trouble with the company but others don't. The way I've always looked at things through life is "you cant judge a book by its cover" and to me w/e is a good company and if at any point a DM tries his/her best to make you do something illegal or run unsafe. At that point you just make a little call to safety and it will be handled. And cant blam ya! you've gotta do what you have to, to take care of loved ones..
red S-10 Thanks this. -
Red S-10,, keep us posted how w/e is treating ya! and like i said ill be back at w/e on the 30th so we"ll see ya out there! are you going in as an eval or student, or experianced?
