Does Werner have any odd policies? My wife is worried about me being gone...will they have me home every 2-3 days as I was told or is this bad recruiter info?
Anyone in here that works or worked for them that can give me some pointers?
Home every 2-3 days seems odd. Most of their regional accounts offer home time every 2-3 weeks, or in some cases weekly. The ones that are weekly, you're pretty much just home for your 34 hour reset. Now, if the route they will have you on has you delivering somewhere close to your home, the may be saying you'll be able to stop in at home briefly fairly often. Also, come to think if it, they also have some accounts that they call net ops that get you home very regularly and that might be what they are talking about. I don't know a whole lot about the net ops accounts though
Usually refers to a driver hauling freight within one particular region of the country. You might be in the "Southeast Regional Division" or "Midwest Regional". Regional route drivers often get home on the weekends which is one of the main appeals for this type of route.

Sage seems like a great school and Werner said they would consider my 5 years of truck driving in the military as "experience" so I can get right to solo driving the western 11.
I feel good about all this but am I missing pertinent information?
Werner said they can have me home every 2-3 days...can I believe this?
What should I know about driving for Werner that they don't tell me?
