Werner Reputation-Myth or Reality?

hahahaha! probably one of the funniest jokes i've heard in a long time

 

Hell I put an Ambulance in the ditch one snowy NY day on the way to a call. It was the ditch or the VW bug in front of me. I choose the ditch. That truck may be in the ditch, but why is the question..

Though taking his 10 was right funny

 

Mr Student.....Have you been out there.....-Dont talk so #### big,-it could very welll be you next year,-make sure you post a Big pic when that happens,whatever truck color it is..... Big Talk from a wannabe.......

 

I saw a Werner one afternoon at the Pilot in Dalton that had 7 empty spots on the back row and a half empty lot in front of them and still couldnt get in into a spot.

 

yeah seriously.

 

whatever.. you worked for them when? did a dispatcher make you mad one day? you do something stupid and got fired? and now they are scum... LOL.. werner has 1400 drivers with over 1million miles. if they were that bad, they wouldnt have stayed with them that long.

 

I saw a Swift, Schneider, UPS, Covenant, USExpress, Roehl, FedEx, Walmart, Truline, JB Hunt, CRST, CR England, Knight trucks do same thing at one time or another. So what is your point? What you meant to say was i saw a new driver who couldnt park. right? What diffrence does it make what name is on the side of the truck? Were you born a truck driver? You seem to forget that YOU were a newb at some point in your career. t

Hey Mike, you should see Highway 2 between Edmonton and Calgary some days. It's a 4-lane divided highway, and carries a lot of LCV traffic, mostly turnpike doubles.

The guys who drive those things have to be experienced, minimally ticketed and generally of proven aptitude, and they live in a region that has 6 months of winter a year. It doesn't seem to make much difference. LCVs leave the road just as readily as four-wheelers. I've been up and down that road at 60 mph wondering why the hell I wasn't invited to the party that was obviously raging the night before.

There is no rhyme or reason to some of the accidents that happen. All you can do when you come up on an accident scene is to be reminded that this time it was someone else. The next time...

To err is human, and we are all human. I've been driving trucks almost as long as you've been alive, but I wouldn't put money on which of us will have the next fender-bender. It could be either of us.
