WorldStar! You were looking for the word worldstar 😂 thanks for the video and the heads up. I’ve been looking and applying to company after company with no luck for months. I think I’m gonna have to bite the bullet and just deal with this company Hopefully I have a at least a decent experience. Stay safe out there!
I didn’t go home for two months when left for orientation but I was just happy to be getting into trucking. They asked me if I wanted to go home for thanksgiving and I said no I just wanted to keep trucking and getting experience. I planned on staying there for a year but the junky trailers were too much I thought I just had bad luck but a while I realized I was putting my cdl in jeopardy working there. Luckily it was middle of COVID trucking boom and I was able to get hired at another company after three months with western. I think nowadays you probably need at least six months if not twelve to get hired at another company. I think so what are you got to keep in mind it western is they are playing a numbers game and you are just a number they know they’re going to make a certain amount of money and there’s going to be a certain amount of people that get into accidents that cost money, so I think they just push every single driver as hard as they can, I think what you have to do as a driver for Western is not let yourself get pressured and just focus on what you’re doing and take the time to do it right so that when the time comes you can go work somewhere else
everyone dont have the luxury of choice some people gotta carry the weight sometimes thats life, i still grind it out but im top driver and love it and would be sad without truckin , maybe it wasnt for u dont worry youll find what ur looking for @@Leo-bp5ns
Nope, you can still get in lots of companies with only three months experience, turnover is still crazy, drivers still change jobs like underwear because trucking companies suck
You’re 100% spot on. I too did my orientation in Richmond and was out the next day after orientation was over, trainer said he had called 3 other people before me and none would answer their phones probably cause they had a hangover from the night before lol. My first month was tuff cause my recruiter signed me up for OTR and I was going back and forth with my DM trying to get home and see the kids. After a month or so I asked to be switched to regional and since then I been home every week and on holidays. But yes you’re right everyone’s case is different.
The "Long Form" is just the completed medical examination report of all the questions your Medical Examiner asked you at your DOT exam. Unfortunately the Examinmer doesn't give you this form at the end of the exam, you gotta ask fo it !! On another note I love your energy. Good video brotha !! Salute the Vets 🫡
Glenn I love you brother! Be safe out there. I started with Swift in October of 2011. I drive local now in Little Rock, Arkansas. Keep trucking brother!
Trying. Honestly, most of these companies are the same. Low pay. You are just a number to them. But the people you talk to that complain are just trying to bring you down with them... Good luck and thanks for watching
Much respect to you for doing what you need to do to get rolling and get some experience under you. That being said, there is a reason people call that place Welfare Express. I hope you make it through your time there safe and sane.
Wow that's crazy bro I'm just now about to start Western Express I'm from Portsmouth Virginia I can only imagine a 22-year-old dude from around here that's crazy
Damn you had the Dayz Inn AND the pleasure of the RED Roof!!! muaa ahhhaha. Man what an experience. You wanna to talk about the fleabag list of hotels.
The long form is just the multiple pages of information and questions the physician has to answer in order to issue the DOT Card. You usually get a copy if they dont offer ask for a copy.
Best of luck. Just get through it and get in your truck and run. Don't listen to any of the nonsense other people tell you. If yiu do what your supposed to, yiu won't have a problem...
I knew in the first 5 mins when I got to the Western Express Richmond Terminal that this was a bad company to work for. Then they proceeded to tell me what my recruiter told me about pay for flatbed loads wasn’t even close to what the reality was
I’m up WE Richmond terminal now, I already know how WE is and Know what to expect from them. Home boy was running for them couple months ago. For everybody that’s coming to WE, that is a get your feet wet, foot in the trucking world company. Get what you need. And get on. It’s levels to the trucking world. Gotta crawl before you walk. Literally will tell you in orientation “this is a get your experience company”. They already know you leaving right after.
Some honest info. Your training or lack of, explains some of the things I see with Western Express drivers. I've seem more than one tear up their truck at a truck stop. I've had a solo driver ask me how to slide his tandems at a shipper. But if you don't have a clean record you might have to start at a company like Western Express. Drive safe, learn what you can, and then move to a better company in a year or so.
Thanks this was so helpful I was skeptical but excited to start the journey and build some type of foundation seems like nobody will hire you as soon as you leave trucking school unless you know a local guy for dump truck work of some sort you have to start somewhere 👍
I’ve been trucking for a little over three years now I actually started out at Western doing flatbed make a long story short. I’ll say this much the first year is the toughest. You don’t know shit it’s basically just one crisis to another the second year to get a little bit more familiar a little more comfortable but there’s still a lot of shit you don’t know if you make it to the third year then you probably have a career as a trucker if you make it that far
im almost done with 4th winter now, i think at some point once u know most of the trucking stuff and youlll never know it all because theres always a new place to go or something different but u gotta learn yourself to what makes u as trucker be your best as far as rest and meals and stress management , its like i like to go hard but i know if i got hard too many days in a row ill burn out so i try to go easy after 2 days going hard kinda like a 2days hard 1 day easy routine but u know truckin it rarely goes how u want @@GoodGuyGlennPresents
I'm not in trade and figured top bunk was only slept in when truck was idle and both teammates needed rest. Beyond the discomfort you described being in top bunk of moving truck, it seems like a death trap in event of rollover, low bridge impact, etc. Figured in a team driving almost always moving situation like you described, each team mate would put their own sheets on bottom bunk when it was their turn to rest.
So you'd rather sleep on the bunk the other sweaty driver is on instead...Got it thanks for your opinion. I did team for 2 years. Always slept up top. Never had an issue because me and the other guy agreed to pull over if we even started getting sleepy.
My man, where you from?!? I grew up in Whitehall PA Looking like W.E is my "go to" 22yrs CDL-B & working while going to school for my A. I had a front end blowout in a CMV long story short truck hit the ditch & rolled on its side & was towed away. Got a tick for Loss of Control company I worked for let me go. I hired an attorney ticket was dismissed for no crash report. So here I am talking with carriers & no 1 wants me 48yrs old this my 1st accident. Hope to see you around How's the pay? THANK FOR THE VIDEO
Dude It's not the best company, but I like to run and they keep me busy. If you can make it through the nonsense at orientation, it's ok while you get yourself sorted out. The only people who seem to have problems here are those who don't want to really work...
Without hesitant the W.E recruiter to me NO they need 9 months from the time of the accident because it was in a CMV Seem like this is going to be harder then I thought No Ticket but a DOT Reported Accident
That place was love the ac alone. Early middle June in the Mid-South ick. People trying to sell u go every time you walk to McDonald's or India North East Nashville Easter yonder mountain string band hiyahhiyah how to walk to 2 miles to The rain through the hood to go to casino when I was at the Richmond terminal good place to pilfer sledgehammers not much for picking up flatbed trailers tho

I just graduated with my CDL with H, T, and N endorsements. Sysco and Western Express interested. What's the transmissions being used for orientation testing? 13, 10, 6, Auto? Also, I was told by the recruiter that after my training, I could bring my dogs. Do you know what their actual pet policy is? Thanks, great videos. Subbed. (I absolutely hate the idea of driver facing cameras)
Definitely go to Sysco. Western will let you have your dogs. The whole industry is Automatic Transmission now. Only heavy haul and mom and pops still have Manual...
@GoodGuyGlennPresents Sweet, thank you. At least with Sysco, I'll be local and home daily. Even if it's 7 days a week and 14-hour days, I'll be home with my dogs. One is 14, and one has a monthly seizure. I've been struggling with how I was going to deal with this. Stay safe out there.

Will they drug test you when you show up for orientation or before you go there? And if it is after you show up for orientation does someone view your collection?
@highspeedsuicide yo 1st thing is your mind ain't right trying to get this paper. Let me walk you thru this since you are on the fence with your drug use. When you do cdl school they piss you. When you get hired with a trucking company they piss you. The better companies give you a hair follicle test which traces back further. Before you step in any direction stop doing drugs for 30 days then go ahead and after that don't do any drugs. If you're gonna get in this industry you gotta be clean 100% of the time until you leave it. This here ain't for people who don't understand the magnitude of handling a 80k lbs piece of equipment. Get your mind right cuz it's obviously not focused. Out of any question you could have asked you're obviously still using and dirty. Come in this industry with that dirty mindset your gonna be gon up out of it in the blink of an eye or worse kill yourself or someone else.
Did my orientation there at the Nashville terminal stayed at Hellmark Inn..Got my training done then sat around for days waiting on a trainer. Luckily I found another company as i sat around waiting at that dump without pay.
You were supposed to get a long form of your dot physical at the clinic you went to. And i dont think they take your blood for a drug test after a accident, its still a dot urnine test and alcohol breathalyzer i believe. You may be right tho bro i dont know.
I just wonder how I m gonna chill in the truck? I know alcohol policy, but dude, I live in this truck 3 weeks. I started to drive 6 am. Delivered the load 8 a.m And I was gonna load next day 7 a.m. what I m gonna do all day long until 7 am. ? There should not be anything wrong dring 1 beer to chill end of the day
Can you tell me about your weekly pay ?I’m supposed to start orientation on 27 May. I’ve been trying to get the recruiter to tell me about the pay I have yet to get anything in writing about that and then. she says I’ll be home every other weekend. and my area is in 11 western states my orientations in Fontana,ca but the more and more that I research Western express I’m starting to have second thoughts.🤷🏻♂️ i’ve had my license for three years, but I’ve never done over the road and I’ve been wanting to do it
The company did not match the starting pay they promised along with other things.the miles suck unless u are a trainer inwitch u will be working 18 hrs a day unless u can sleep with a super bad trainie. I WORKED THERE FOR 6 MONTHS AND PAID OFF MY CONTRACT AND WENT TO UPS.I MUST SAY I HAD A GOOD DISPATCHER BUT I COULDN'T GIT MY TRAINIES TO TAKE A SHOWER MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK.THE ONE GOOD THING IS THEY WILL GET U BACK ON THE RD.
Did they let you go once 70 hours training were completed? I’ve done 80 so far and was told it’ll be 70 And now I feel my trainer is using me to get extra miles
@@GoodGuyGlennPresents they been tryna get me out there. I just got my cdl February 1st. Seem like they too thirsty to get me there man but fuck it in need experience
