    From what I hear, not a very good decision.

    Im looking at Averett, Roehl, US Xpress , Warner and thats all I can see at the moment. Just got my License today and I need to start applying before my 90 curfew is up. Can you guys and or gals help me make the right choice???

    Here is a few things about me that might help you help me. :biggrin_255:

    I'm married 8 years. So shes tired of me (She says-I need a break)
    got 3 boys. there tired of me. (they say-get a life)
    Make less than $2000 a month on current job, so the families mad at me. (We say-we need money)

    Crete. Roehl.

    These two are good. They're not great, but the probability you will do well with these is much greater than most. I've heard a lot of negative about US Express. I wouldn't go with them, but that's just me.

    I work for a division of PAM and couldn't sleep at night if I recommended it to anyone. Used to could get decent miles and they didn't mess with you too much. Now there are no miles, all the good customers are gone and the office people want to talk to you like your a dog. I've been here 18 months and will be cleaning out my truck soon as I can get back home. Only go with PAM if everyone else in the known world refuses you. You will make more money at McDonalds flipping burgers.

    Just finished up my 11th month with PAM. Got 30 more days and then i am gone. You better expect paychecks that are 380-550 a week. Thats it. $40 dollars a day for layover. The pay plus the book miles they pay you for have me wanting something better. I would not recommend you working a day past your 12 month contract with these clowns.
