Western Express

Have fun! Adventure is just around the corner. I don't know squat about them except their ads about a tv, directv with nfl package lol. They do appear like they're wanting to make drivers happy. Good luck and let us know how it goes for you.
They offer free DirectTV with HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, and NFL Sunday Ticket...I think that is pretty interesting.

I think it is for OTR drivers. I may go with western. But my 1st 2 choices are West Side Transport and Schneider
OTR:
Over The Road
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

Do not stress for a second about the bad reviews, I trained for my cdl with cr england, a company that has 99% horrible reviews all over the internet, The folks there were great and I have no regrets.

One of our moderators, Old School, drove for Western Express and he loved it there. Said he never found one single positive thing about the company before going to work there but it turned out to be a great gig. So don't sweat the negativity. Just go there and show them you're ready to work hard, listen and learn, and do it all with a great attitude. You'll do great.
