Ok folks, here it goes.
I have heard nothing but bad things about CRST on this forum, very few good things. So, I have decided that I will summarize my days at CRST training and orientation, then when I can while out on the highway.
I go to CRST school May 21st, so expect my first post next Monday night.
I will try and keep this going, keyword, try.
CRST Blog - Will post as much as I can daily starting 5/21

I ran with crst a while back, no problems, they are a large carrier and all have problems. I enjoyed my time there, just didnt care for the whole team thing. Good luck

Good luck. Spent 2 years there...there are miles there. Communication is key. Pick up and deliver on time and if you are going to be late send that macro in!! You will find yourself shaking your head at some of their logic and sometimes unrealistic expectations but for the most part do your job and move on after you get the experience. Finding a good codriver goes a long way in whether you will be sucessful or not.
