    The whole forced sleep study thing scared me from these guys early on. I'd hate to be on a breathing machine if I didn't need one.

    They don't force everyone to get a sleep study. I worked for Crete Carrier for 18 years and never had a sleep study.

    I work here and never had one either.
    Nurse said if you're overweight with a big neck then you get tested.

    All the info you're looking for is on their website

    It's "Shaffer" BTW

    OTR mostly but they have regional stuff

    Crete starting pay is .45

    Shaffer is .48

    Crete is shorter runs but more drop and hooks
    Shaffer is longer runs but you have more BS appointments to deal with
