    So why don't you read all the threads about CRST? There will be drivers who are happy with them telling their story as well. That too much work? Or, are you lust looking for someone to blow smoke up your butt?

    Good to hear that you read the posts here already. You never did say that until now. As you realized a lot of the 'bad company' threads are a dumping ground for people who felt taken advantage of or felt abused.

    Not trying to start anything other than find out why you were to anti-negative (now that is a new one, a double negative defining a negative state? LOL ) comments. I do know things about them, but, you seem to not want to hear it so. Oh well, you will find out sooner or later.

    Good day.

    CRST is plan B for us. We will be there next week if anything goes wrong here at Covenant. My wife doesnt want to be with a trainer though, thats why its plan b.

    Ive worked at CRST before. They were good to me, I, on the other hand was stupid and young. Keep a good attitude and you'll do fine.
     
    Flying Finn Thanks this.

    I am not going to CRST and 3000 miles for a team truck is low. Your friend's mileage was even lower. Sounds to be there is a rest of the story here.

    Yep. He's not a lazy guy at all. He wants to run. They would give him & his partner short runs such as Indy to Tenn.-Tenn to Ohio.-Ohio-Wisconsin.Etc...thats no way for a team to run, and I have talked to many CRST drivers that have told me the same thing. So I guess..lol.. I wouldnt go, my buddy is now at swift and gets about 2800-3000 miles a week and he loves it.

    For the first three months that what they are paying new drivers. Didn't say it was good pay. I just said that is what they pay..

    Yes it's to the truck.. Get a team driver who doesn't pull his weight and he/she is getting part of your money.. Again not my policy. it's theirs and I am not working for them..

    Also they are paying for the school if you drive for them for EIGHT months. Most driver mills are a year or more. They use you, you use them..
