    It's going good! I'm glad to be here and have done some nice long runs so far. Even though the guy that's giving me a refresher is really cool and I like him a lot I'll be really glad when it's over and I can go solo. It's impossible for me to get sleep in a bouncing truck and I miss being able to play my music as loud as I want! One and a half more weeks to go then I'll be on my own!

    I'm getting team pay since I'm just doing a refresher so .26 a mile. When I go solo .40 a mile. Plus fuel, safety, and mileage bonuses, monthly, quarterly, and yearly.

    Try the "Report a bad Company section" Alternatively try "Report a Good Company section " there both at the top of the Forum or use the search engine type in Western Express or Schneider and see just what comments are being made about them.

    Congratulations! They seem like a great company so far. I don't think you'll regret it.
