Western Express?

I'm scheduled for orientation at W.E in a few weeks for their flatbed division. I have a little over a year's experience with dry van tractor-trailor, but no experience with a flat bed. I was told by my recruiter that I will start out at .40 CPM and they will train me on load securment.

Does anyone know if they will stay true to this? Because as I did with C.R.England, I forgot to have them send me that in an e-mail for documentation. Also, what can I expect from Western Express overall?

 

True, I will make sure I do that before I go.

 

Yeah, my DAC is messed up because CRE says I abandoned my truck. So I'm not really sure who will hire me at this point, so I figured I'd go with western express at .40 CPM

 

Thanks lonesome, I read through a lot of those posts. It is all making me more nervous. I feel like every company has its pros an con's, as well as unhappy drivers. You can't make everyone happy, and some people are just lazy/bad drivers and will complain about everything. I'm excited about getting on with them. With only a year's experience, I feel like 40 CPM is pretty good. I asked my recruiter to confirm that via e-mail, but hasn't got back to me yet. If he does confirm that I don't see why I shouldn't give them a chance, considering my less then perfect DAC report. We will see I guess...
