I've heard other drivers refer to it as, "being held hostage." (Literally that is what it's like working for Werner.) If I stayed with Werner, I would have been homeless, living out of my truck and dependent on Werner for food and water. I was unassertive until this forum. Werner grossly underestimated who I am.

This thread definitely sounds like a disgruntled former employee with a conspiracy theory that was conjured up by a single one-sided perception.
I drove for Werner for 9-months (2010 - 2011), and was never denied repairs. Werner in my experience was a decent company for someone starting out, and do not regret my experience with them. Everyday was not great, but no job is.Indiana Jack Thanks this. -

Werner's capital is their trucks. Werner achieves financial capital gains by not paying rightful wages to their drivers. Werner buys trucks based on an amortization schedule. That means Werner pays less every year for equipment fiscal depreciation. The bottom line is Werner makes a lot of money by not appropriately paying rightful wages to their drivers. Drivers should gross nothing less than $ 50,000 per year.....nothing less...not ever. Werner needs to financially compensate their driver's time and availability to move their freight and I don't care if the driver is stopped six months out of a year. If the driver is available, the driver needs to be paid for their time. Without the driver, Werner can't move freight. (Lay-over pay is a joke and unacceptable...) Appropriate annual salaries as a base pay are necessary. -
F****** conspiracy theory ?????
Werner's solution to driver complacency is putting a popcorn maker in the corner of the terminal next the f****** T.V. -

its bad though. no joke. werners taking out APU's and cutting out the idle time. when the idle cuts out you got no power and no a/c and no heat. it's bad. werner dont care if you got no heat or a/c. werner just dont think you should have no a/c or heat and dont want to pay for 2 gallons diesel to idle or no APU.
