Start orientation March 30th!

After Roehl telling me they can't hire me because I have been out of school for 60 days I have decided to get on with Werner. I leave from Winona, MN on Tuesday March 29th to head to Omaha NE. I'm not going to have any expectations going into this because of what everyone on here says about the company, but rather go into the experience with an open mind. I do not fear I will hate it as much as other people because I have had plenty of jobs where I was just a number and it truely doesn't bother me. I think a lot of people have a pre-conceived notion about what truck driving is suppose to be like. My notion? Its going to be hard. Plain and simple. I do not have expectations that I will be home evey month, nor do I think its going to be a cake walk. I am going into this with my head down and follow company policies to the best of my ability for the next 6-12 months until I get the experience necessary for the better of the companies. Ill update this thread with how I view the orientation and training process from start to finish for those new drivers that, like myself, are interested in hearing an unbiased opinion about what its like to go to Werner with a positive attitude.

Thanks for reading,

I'm glad its working out good for you. I'm so excited to get going finally! The only thing I'm worried about is making sure all my previous work history stuff clears. I have a pretty bad work history so I hope when I call and confirm everything Tuesday morning they don't tell me I won't be able to go. I'm just going to cross my fingers and enjoy my last weekend being unemployed. Take care.
