Good luck and wear your cast iron chastity belts. And don't ever say you weren't warned.

Remember, Every New Guy Leaves After Ninety Days (ENGLAND). CRE is probably as good as any but be prepared to be treated like defication. They will keep you in the dark and try to run the #### out of you. My wife and I did our 90 days, I call it our "missionary work" and are now headed to a new and much better company now that will pay us approximately twice the money when you take into account the various bonuses we'll be getting.

Good luck,

I'm a CRE driver, and all I can say is, don't. Just don't do it. The company will treat you worse then any other company out there. Infact I've worked for placed that I've had to sue before and they have treated me better. And whatever you do, don't stay in that deathcamp they like to call West Valley City Terminal.

Their training program should be renamed to "See how much you can screw over the new people in three to four weeks then force them to go through another couple of weeks of CAT training so you can screw them over some more"

I've rolled over 20,000 miles so far in training and haven't even cleared $1500 gross, and don't forget, England starts taking money out of your check ASAP for school and training.
