Debating on what school to go to

ok i have been reading for a few weeks and have finally decided to join and ask some questions. Im scheduled to go to CRST in 2 weeks. i know its evil but its a step in the door. im also looking, and waiting on millis. i have talked to them a few times, and now im waiting on the training manager. the reason i need a company sponsored school is because my living situation is expiring and i am movin to the country area and the time feels right to make a move like this. i also have some money set aside. any input is appreciated. also i have looked at Prime, Stevens , and a few others but am still open

If Millis picks you up, definitely go with them. Based on what I have seen about them on here, they would be a better choice than CRST. I believe Crete has a training program, but am not positive. There will be some other members popping in here with some input soon I'm sure!

i hope so. i really don't want to go with crst but i will if i have too. i have read many things about all the companies and you really have to choose the lesser of the two evils. i always go into a job with a positive attitude and make myself aware of the games they might play so i don't fall victim to them

Going in with a good attitude is definitely a helpful thing. At least you have been reading plenty on here, so you know the things to watch out for. Good luck with it, and keep us posted as to how things go.
