Before I go any farther, OP worked at Swift. That didn't work out for him. I'm not so sure he hasn't been turned down by some of the other beginner companies. Now all of those companies you just mentioned, some will argue that they are bottom feeder companies. They all have a bad review somewhere on this internet. I guarantee it. I'm so glad that you think those are better companies. Let me ask you this: how do you truly know if they are better companies? Did you work at any of them? I've came across drivers who loved all of those companies, and others that hated those companies. What makes those companies aby better? Newsflash: all of these companies are pretty much the same at their core.
Also, I'm glad that you know someone who made decent money at Prime Inc. My name is Bryan. I worked for Western, and believe it or not, I made good money there as a beginner. Difference was, I was on the flatbed side. Every company has drivers that do well, and drivers that stink it up.
I'll say it one more time.....if a rookie keep his head down, run the miles, do what's asked of him, hone his skills, get experience and most of all, not listen to drivers like yourself who job shame drivers for working at certain companies, he will have a greater chance at having a better experience and lasting longer in the industry.slim shady and Chinatown Thank this. -

Scott Jackson in Jerome, Idaho is looking for commodity (belt trailer usually) and hay (flat beds, doubles or triples likely) according to a sign posted at Scoular where I loaded today.

Does it suck? Absolutely.
So does McDonald’s.
Neither is intended to be a lifetime commitment, merely a stepping stone to where you want to go.
We all gotta start somewhere, and seat time is what opus needs. He’s got a shiny new cdl and no experience.
Seat time is the only way to get experience.
Better to get that experience and be underpaid than no experience.
Even with 3 months, more doors open for better opportunities.
You can’t win if you don’t play.lual Thanks this. -

That guy is being a diva. It happens. Western Express is not the only company that has had that issue. It's happened to me at other companies. Also, Western is headquartered in Nashville. Part of doing a pretrip is checking the registration. Had he done that, he could have got that squared away before going to Maryland. At that point, it ain't much that can be done til that trailer gets back to Nashville. All he has to do is let them know that the registration and plate don't match and it's fixed. That type of violation is no biggie. Plates fall off all the time. You'll see trucks with paper work taped to the windshield while they wait for the paperwork to process. Dude being inexperienced, he's gonna think that's a big deal. He's also not going yo think to check the paperwork. Most vets, including myself forget. I'm not saying that Western is the number one best company, I'm only saying that issue happens to every company. If that's the worst violation he gets in his trucking career, you live with it. I certainly would.
