"do not quit werner before you have another job" is about the dumbest advise I have ever heard of.
500-700 miles per week? If you can prove that you are receiving just those miles per week when you can do more, I would not only abandon the truck, I would leave it at the bottom of a lake. Just to make a statement. .26 cents per mile? $130 - $182 per week? That's bull :dung: !! That truck would be sold to the highest bidder, piece by piece. Tires first. Quit. Do it now. If you must, drive it back to the terminal, no matter where you are right now. Let them pay for the fuel. What are they going to do? Keep your last check? What check? You are not making anything. Try to charge you for bringing it back empty? If they try, tell them you are getting a lawyer, and they can talk with him. The only person you are hurting by keeping that job is yourself. Even a telemarketer makes $9.00 per hour. Find something else if you can't go back into trucking. Or stick it out, and quit your whining. It's your choice. :wink: |
I hate saying this. Everyone on this board knows how much I hate saying this.
So you should know I really hate saying this. Contact JB Hunt. If your record is clean, and you have 4 months, I'm sure they will hire you.....I can't remember is you have to be 23 though. Contact Sheepdancer. He would know. |
So far no reply from the OP....post is still young thought. I really suspect he isnt going to be back....and he wont beable to prove his lack of mileage and unreasonable dispatcher....patiently waiting!!!!

Lol cluggy...But you are right, he would actually make more money at JB. However his problem is his age...hes only 21. At JB you have to be 22. And at many other trucking companies he would need to be 23.
I dont think Crete would hire him. I believe Crete requires drivers to be 23 too. I dont really know, I dont recruit for them, but I do recruit for their sister companies, Shaffer and Hunt. They both require 23 years of age. Plus Shaffer doesnt allow Werner experience because of the electronic logs. Go figure. Out of all the many companies I hire for his only options I would have for him were Swift and US Xpress. They both would at least pay him more per mile and get more miles. Hes just not going to make great money until he turns 22 or more likely 23 in OTR trucking. |

It's amazing in my province you can get your Class 1(A) license at the young age of 19 years old. Isn't that amazing? Having a young adult out there on the road in control of 80, 000 lbs. I got my license when I was 21 and it was the best thing for me. I have a great fuel hauling job locally now and I'm home every night. I made 65,000 last year doing what I do and I hope to make more this year. It just goes to show that you can move up in this industry if you have the right job.
