well i was wanting a little info first off i guess i have a felony from over 10 years ago and was just wondering how far back do they check and my other question is if they send me a bus ticket to go and let's say they tell me that they did a background check and found this felony your done will they send you back or do i have to find my own way back i just don't want to sign up for central and have them say well you have this you out then get stuck there in SLC trying to figure out how i get back home

Be honest about it before you go, and make sure you get the number for the person in the security dept and talk to him.
If you talk to him about it, and what the charge was ect. he should be able to tell you if they will take you or not.
The biggest problem people are having that have any old charges is not putting it down and hopeing the company will not find it.
I can tell you, they will find it.
It may not be before they tell you go come for training. Actually, if you do not admit to it they will have you come. You will start training, and some time in the first week they will pull you out and tell you to leave. If you lie I know they do not pay for you to get home.
If you are honest, I am not sure if they pay or not. I never asked anyone that was told to leave.
Security should be able to tell you though.
Mostly they have the no felony clause in there because they use to run freight out of Canada. I do not know of any accts where they do that now.
Talk to security. Be honest. And see what they say.

thank's man sort of not what i wanted to hear but thanks anyways i guess i can try but i'm guessing it prolly will stop me from going i mean it's nothing violent or drug related but still ppl do dumb things and now i'm trying to better myself and can't because of it

I was a trainer with central ref and its better to be upfront with the recruiter and not waste your time. I was trying to get new employees to work for me on my owner op truck and usually if you give them the info they can let you know in a couple of days. They will give you a bus ticket on the greyhound and that ride is horrible and not worth doing if your not going to get the job.

BTW.
There is a rather large and busy thread about Central Refregerated on the favorite companys thread.
Called Central Refregerated Truck stop.
A few curent trainers are active there and many people going to the school. If nothing else it can give you some ideas.
Also more of the central people check that thread on a dayly basis than this one.

What happened at Central ?

Did they let you stay with that felony ?
