Western Express or Willis Shaw Express?

Western told me they want me to start May 1, 2010. I have a wife and son, so I don't mind running hard.....we need the money. This will be my first trucking job, I just finished 20 weeks of training at Nettts. It is a great school. The downside is you work like you are getting paid. The goodside.....it prepares you for hard work in the trucking industry. As far as running illegal.....I would report it to DOT before I found myself unemployed. Anyways.....I was looking for some advice, as this is my first trucking job.

 

Okay...I'll be with WE soon. I'll post updates as to how it goes. For the record, I've been in a truck since 1984. Talking to their drivers, I've really heard nothing bad about them. I'll be on their western division. More to come...

 

Started orientation on Monday. So far, so good. Nobody lording over anyone, talking down to drivers, and so on. About the worst I can say is the bus trip from Spokane, WA to here was miserable - 4 transfers, and about 2 dozen stops (I'm doing orientation in Fontana.) Pretty straight-forward, no BS, just mostly filling out paperwork and going over it. A more relaxed atmosphere than most, and they answer questions honestly, with no fluff or flim-flam.
More to come...

 

Bussed in from Spokane, to go to Western Express in Fontana ????

I wish you well my friend !!!!!!

Some folks do pretty good there, please keep us updated !!!!

 

Show me more than 10 smart drivers that hang out at the same place all at one time and I will auction off the Pacific Ocean on eBay.

 

Im try to make a decision between Western Express or USA Truck which is a good company to choose?

 

Where you at now Bryan?

 

Thanks man for your opinion!!
