Good luck. Have fun. There are lots of good places to eat around there if you can afford it. If not Aldi's is around the corner.

Who are you with? Always good to know who is willing to hire without demanding some sort of up-front, non-refundable fee...
I'm about to settle for CR England, mostly for this reason, and because I've been out of the seat for a few years (so I don't really get my pick-and-choose). They are nevertheless demanding that I pay a $50 "Administration fee", plus $35 for the DoT physical and drug test (which also must be performed by the company, and not by a third-party medical clinic of the paying driver's choice). I had the impression that the company was responsible for it's own "Administration" (whatever exactly that consists of), and that any employer-required medical exams should be paid for by the employer who requires them - especially if they choose the medical provider - but then, this is truck driving, and somehow our industry is special, this way. Of course, this is also why I left for several years... It feels like a gravity well (or perhaps a meat grinder), drawing me back in.
At least CR England doesn't require me to pay them for the "refresher" course that they require and provide. The pay stinks, and I'm dubious about their mileage promises, but that's par for the course when you don't get to pick and choose between employers.
So if you've got a better employer, I'd certainly be interested to hear about them... -

Im just curious. Im thinking about going with either USExpress, Crst, or CR England and im wondering why you have to do a DOT physial....the drug test I get. I have a medical card which expires in Feb. of 2014. Is this physical in lieu of a Medical Card if you already have one? BTw professional trucker how long have you been with Crst? Are you OTR, Regional?? -
