Werner and Graduation

Going to be taking the Inspection,Yard and road test Wednesday. All goes well Werner promised me a spot at a Budweiser distribution center in my area! Should I trust them and what does a local driver for Werner make. Are they a good company, or should I look around for something else! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

patience is a virtue.

give folks who might know something a chance to respond.

If your patience level has maxed out already, I would be very nervous about the industry you are getting into.

Just Nervous

The bills have piled up the old lady is on my ass and I dont want to make the wrong decision. She doesnt want me to go over the road but expects local pay to be big. Tried to explain that it doesnt work that way but in one ear and out the other. Not lacking patience just my balls are to the wall so tp speak!

Not much. But it's a start I guess.

No, but there's worse. Just ask Spencerian.

Well you gotta start somewhere. They may fit your needs as a starter company in terms of location, dedicated accts, hometime, etc. Just don't plan on making it a career because there's FAR, FAR better deals once you get some miles under your belt.

Well the way I figure, if u got bills stacking up you better make a quick decision...Some money is better than no money and no place to live...Werner and any other large company would be considered a decent trainer company...JUst like I always say "ROLL WIT THE PUNCHES"...
