    Well a buddy of mine went thru training and talked me into coming over here. Went thru a 2 day orientation in Springfield oh. On the 3rd day after our drug results came back she put me in a 2017 dark blue kw t680. Had 100 miles on it. Has the cummins and automatic. 1st day they had me bobtail to Columbus and bring 2 old trls back to Springfield. 2nd day i went to lima to get a load to eagle pass tx. Took it to the okc drop yard then bobtailed home. Took a 34 then went back to okc and grabbed a load of lockers bound for a high school in las Vegas nv. Ended up giving it to another driver in Albuquerque so he can go home. Took his load to Ogden ut. Reload at same place going back to paris tx now we're headed back to Ogden. So far so good.

    I heard Werner was going to try to overcome the problems that they and most mega carriers have... increase pay....better runs... more local and dedicated runs.

    I have a cousin who runs a dedicated chicken account for them out of Paducah KY and is happy as a clam there. Maybe they are trying...
