I was planning on doing videos of my trucking journey out the gate , but lord knows it's been a journey, from starting with a different company and failing with them to adjusting to the road. But today, I had time. hope this answers y'all questions if not hop in the comments and ask away .
Hope everyone don’t go to this company it’s all bullish the company suck
Hope everyone don’t go to this company it’s all bullish the company suck
Did you clap bruh yes or no?
Lol hell naw I was depressed like a mf😂😂😂
@@Jamargary glad you turned a negative to a positive. I’m with them right now and I’m transitioning into being a trainer. From the threat of false accusations, I’m not going to take on female drivers.
Yeah I'm pretty sure all females not the same but it's best to just have a man. I probably would still be there training
Why u stopped making videos
Life been a little hectic but I'm going to get back to it real soon
Yo you got a email for me? I got some questions bout western. I’m a recent grad
Supersonicmoving@gmail.com
I start orientation next week for Western Express out of Southern California thanks for the info…..a little nervous but ready for a fresh start in a different career….plan on vlogging on YT as well
How long was the process?
@@KC1986JR not that long I applied then about 2 days later my recruiter called me had me send him more info then had me on the waiting list for about a week
Man i just got hired at western express in scared shitless bro smh
Scared of what? And are you dry van or flatbed and are you otr or regional?
Will Western Express drug test check for Suboxone? Im being prescribed Suboxone and have been medically cleared for it. Was wondering if theyd denie you for having prescribed Suboxone med?
Not sure about that bro
Boy they did not fire you over some "he say,she say"😂😂 CAP.. (that would an easy lawsuit, lawyers will be begging you to take that case) at best they'll switch you out... just admit you licked self-control, and push some uncomfortable boundaries.... 😅 for you to get fired, she had to have evidence!!
I'm also a flatbed driver for Western this is about the realest video yet. Spitting straight truth. Most problems stems from the driver themselves 💯. I'm not going anywhere. This company has treated me Great 👍
Smart man and I appreciate it
Ohio is Midwest they don’t offer regional you know how change address to make it northeast??
Bro tells it like it is. There are A LOT of cry baby truckers. Every damn company. Its all cry babies
No question I try bro
@@Jamargary I think it would be beneficial if they'd stay humble, positive and understand it takes awhile to pick up steam in any career. Stay safe man
I appreciate that bro same to you
So if I get hired with Western I should do flatbed not dry van? I'm in Danville Va? Just looking for some advice bro because I'm new! Thanks!
Most definitely do flatbed. Better money and we only work during normal business hours
I'm a new cdl graduate and I'm from Danville Va. I'm also thinking about applying with Western and people are telling me I'm stupid but I agree with you on everything you said in this video. I've also made some mistakes in my life so I've got a felony that's over 10 years old so I'm not having any luck finding a job so that's 1 of tge reasons I figured I'd try out Western. Do you think they'd give me a shot?
Email me Supersonicmoving@gmail.com and I'll shoot you my number
I appreciate u sharing your personal and positive experiences about western express
do what you need to do and make it how you make it fr , know what you need to do start from the bottom then move up !
How you doing a video on how you got fired but not telling how you got fired. Just keep it a buck and say you were trying to touch something. You ain't nothing but a man keep it real
Did they call or email you about being fired. I got an email from the workday app, not W.E. saying Change Benefits for Life Event: Termination... ??? I didn't even do anything, I'm on my hometime.
They routed me the terminal lol and sent a text message. You should be good bro
@@Jamargary thanks for responding as quickly as you did. I barely got that email from workday this morning, but didn't see it 'til now.
No problem
Don’t be fooled, western express is one of the worst, if not the worst trucking companies out there. All around terrible. There’s a reason they’re willing to hire felons and drivers who’ve failed drug tests. They can’t keep people around. Why can’t you keep people around? They’re dogshit.
Get away from Western Express asap
U didnt know what u were doing. U thought u knew, but u lacked discipline. U still look too young to be training ppl esp the opposite sex. Do u know how impossible tht is ? Dont do training other ppl Any more. Dont doit i mean it.
Thanks Jamar..I like your attitude and mentality.. I got my cdl in 2016. Quit driving 2019 ...coming back now in May 2024 ..Jerome my recruiter at W.E. got me in orientation next week..last week of May.. I used to haul a pneumatic tanker.. Never a flatbed.. Im 60 y/o but dont mind the extra work as I was used to with the tanker.. I guess my question is ... Im just curious what your opinion is... Me being out of the business for almost 5 years has hendered my options.. Western Express was offering me the chance and Im taking it.. Thanks Jamal.. Stay safe out there !
Thanks Eric appreciate that alot
Well I am a female driver and I had a male trainer who was Haitian and married. He spoke about me during many phone calls according to google translate. He would say things to me like he was not still married for love; He was only still married because he didn’t want to apologize to his kids for anything. When we spoke about the diet of a trucker on the road he stated I didn’t need to worry about that just make sure I keep my shape. We did a 34 in Nevada and I got a room at a hotel and invited him to get his own room. He said he couldn’t afford it and was seemingly irritated by the “get his own room” part. He would edit my logs without my permission and have me approve them without pointing out his edits. He would prop his phone behind the steering wheel and watch movies as he drove down the highway. I was done with hours and backs and he intentionally drove me past the nearest terminal in Oklahoma and accepted yet another load from Laredo Tx going Northwest. I could keep going. Just know, some trainers have good intentions but a lot of them DO NOT. All I can say is no matter the sex make sure you keep a written record and any other proof of the experience you have on your trainers truck and don’t be afraid to speak up. One thing is for certain if the trainee makes one false move the trainer will exit you from the truck without a second thought and that makes this video suspect. Having a CDL means you are too old to be moving or accepting movements from someone else that are less than professional because you have EVERYTHING to lose including your life and freedom. Y’all carryon with the no female thing though when y’all be out here disrespecting your life and your wife like you never seen inside a woman’s underwear and get mad when they throw you under the bus. I turned the Haitian man in…sure did. He said…”oh you have 10000 balls” and I sure do. I am an African American WOMAN and you will not be legally kidnapping me. I have completed what was required. I tucked away my paperwork he had already completed that matched what I had self recorded. I took myself of his truck at the very next truck-stop and called a cab to the nearest hotel. I called the company they apologized profusely reimbursed my cab and hotel and flew me home for hometime. The following week I upgraded to my own truck. That’s how you tell a story when you have no fault. IMO🤷🏾♀️🤦🏽♀️ good luck!
No eating on the job lol
Its hard (lol) being in a truck with a female and not trying nothing
Eww
Speaking on N.E. region, it's fact's 🤞🏾💯 I moved from Florida to Baltimore 14 years ago and haven't moved back because of the work and money on this end. I visit home few times a year but its definitely money. As a tanker driver, i cant speak on anything else.. videos on page to show paystubs ect.
I'm currently in Maryland now, how much experience did you need to get into tanker and how is your home time
@@Jamargary 6mo otr , and you can come on... It's sweet over here, small mom and pop , I'm on a dedicated account, and you look at my paystub you'll see I only be in Pa and NJ. Far as home time , you go home when ready. It's no such thing as gotta stay out a certain time. I was on regional and going home every week , they let you dictate your own check. I.e. I went back home to Florida for a week, and they let me without no vacation. Btw what part of MD. I'm down by fells point? I can give you more info if like. I'm not here to recruit, but I can direct you in the right place. Only reason I want everyone knows I'm sincere about info I put out. Btw we take truck home, trailer too if wanted too. T.v. direct t.v. , Sirius radio ect.
@@Jamargary and no tanker experience 🤞🏾
Email my Supersonicmoving@gmail.com and I'll give you my number
@@Jamargary I emailed you brother, check email
When you say a thousand dollars a week is that gross pay or after taxes
After taxes
So if you don’t do flatbed how much you’ll make with w.e?
I honestly can't speak for dry van
If you have no experience 40cmp 2 cent raise every month
A trainer after 7 months WTF...
I mean how many scenarios will a trainee see within 70 hours? The whole point is to make sure that they can safely operate the truck. You don't need to be an expert to observe that
Can you get regional as a new driver?
Yes sir
@@Jamargary appreciate the reply boss!
How many miles do you put up per day?🤔
I'm not there anymore but I averaged somewhere between 300-450 a day hit and miss
@@Jamargary Western Express was one of the first companies to try to recruit me. Werner Enterprises, Covenant Transport, TransAm Trucking, Western Express, Covenant Transport, Prime Inc., and Supreme Trucking. I went with Supreme because they paid the most ($1650-$1800 per trip) as well as being the closest to home. It's 1099 and team driving. We go back and forth from New Jersey to the West Coast.
In everything you have to do in work you have to make the best of it. Just do your job and make the best of it. Nothing can be worse than being in Afghanistan and iraq. Lmao
How long were you with your trainer
I would do it but… have a son and tons of bills, I’m kinda shying away from going with western express. I had some things on my record that’s why I thought about going with them. Idk where I’m at now I make 1100 to 1200 a week, but I’m trying to get something OTR without class A experience because I just got my class A. I mean I have a lot of questions honestly and talking to a recruiter is a waste of time.
Email me
Is regional available if you live in Buffalo NY
how long were you with the trainer?
Also do they let you choose if you wanna do regional or otr? Im in NJ tryna see if I can be home weekends
I did two weeks training and you have to ask if regional positions are available if not do dry van until it opens
How much was the paychecks a week after taxes?
Between 1k and 1500 depending on the week my boy who's still there has seen 1700 on his best week
Yes sir
What about starting off pay and what’s the pay difference between flat bed and dry van pay about to start there next month no experience
Hell no
Hell no what?
I hope my experience is good, with all the bad reviews im kinda nervous. My orientation is Monday. I plan on going flatbed. Hopefully I get a decent trainer. I feel you on the last drivers part. I think the complainers are the ones with the worst attitudes even before trucking. Probably couldn’t even hold down a real basic job
How's it going
@@Jamargary terrible but some ppls experience is better than others. I got my own truck no inverter but my DM is trash, the training was bad. Another person I’m my class I got her number she lucked out. Got a new truck with inverter and a great trainer
What’s the point of the video if you don’t go into detail about what happened
Shut up
Bahahahaha useless express
You must didn't get hired lol
@@Jamargary how do u not get hired ? They hire dui and felons . U dont get hired by western then nobody will hire u
This is about the best "WE" video I've seen. Gives me some hope before orientation. Thank you. (I think 🤔 😅🤣😂) 🙏 for me.
I appreciate that, sorry for the late response
Thank you for the insight. I work for them and i am dry van and it’s been hard to make $ net income over $600 I don’t want to be a trainer tho and don’t want to do flat bed as a woman that’s too much for me personally. But iono I’ll figure it out but thanks for the video
I know a flatbed trainer with western, small petite woman and she kicks tail. It's not that bad at all and you'll see tremendously better money
Driver shit that's what I used two make 18 years ago on dry van 😂😂😂1000 a week
What you making now?
@Jamargary Right know I'm a independent carrier only have two trucks.running them very well just that January and February are slow months
Do they do hair test?
Nope
@@Jamargaryforreal i just shaved my head to haha
Be for real bro but bring your expectations high man! Your talking 1000/week is a rookie dry van! Flat bed rookie can establish $1600 and keep the ball rolling from there l. Expectation is everything
Where?
OK, I'm kind of busy multitasking and not really paying too close attention to this informative video. But you're telling me that Western Express trainers after their truck payment after their fuel, and after their insurance are bringing home 3500 to $5000 a week. Is that what you said? OK, let's go on the low end and say 3500 a week. OK, that's $14000 a month. You're telling me that's $168000 net income for a trainer at Western Express. I'm calling bullshit right now. Another point I'd like to make is you in your own video just stated what is wrong with this industry right now. You've been driving for 3 or 4 months and you are on your way back to the terminal to become a trainer. Is that what you said? You've been running a flatbed truck for 3 or 4 months now, and you are going to take some poor rookie and you're going to be his trainer. No offense, dude, and this is nothing personal against you. But you have no idea what you're doing after 3 or 4 months as a flat bed driver. Pop quiz hotshot, you have A42 1000 pound. Roller steel on your flat bed suicide configuration. How many change do you need to be compliant as far as securing goes? Let's say you have a flatbed trailer with axles that at least one can be reposition. What's the max allowable weight for your tandems? What do you do if after you're loaded? You have to drive 50 miles to the nearest truck. Stop to get scaled out and you find out that you're now overweight on your tandems. Can you slide your tandems to adjust the weight and scale out? Legally, do you know how to slide your fifth wheel? Do you know how to do that with 42000 pounds on your deck? You're the guy that's now having to make those decisions and also instruct that new green horn. Asked how to rectify this situation. Again, this is nothing personal, but you don't have the knowledge or the experience to know how to deal with these situations. When I finish my work day I will sit down and watch the entire video, and I will be back to make some further comments but do it really, really? Just a cursory viewing of this video and you have not changed my mind about Western Express at all. It's run by bunch of idiots. If you think you're a real truck driver, you've got a long ways to go, buddy. And if you think at 3 or 4 months and experience that you're in a position to be able to instruct and teach someone else how to do this job properly, no chance, buddy. I've been in this industry for over 15 years. I've been pulling step deck for over 4 years. I learned something every day. Yes, I know enough to do the job legally properly and safely you don't. And I'm still just laughing my butt off at you. Claiming that trainers at Western Express make over a $160000. Net, not happening Bubba. I'm an owner-operator my current average pay per mile is $2.32 you do the math.
Man what are you talking about lmao. You just wrote a whole paragraph not making any sense.
Keep up the good work!!
Appreciate it
Drama always go down, Over a FEMALE!
I suppose to start out of Richmond in February anybody that’s there or been there gives some updates if it’s worth it or not
Are you dry van or flatbed
I start flatbed the 18th how is it so far ?
@@Jamargaryhow is it I start the 18th
I left western but have people there. Are you regional or otr?
