Ok, on the first part of your paragraph about "averaging 36 hours a week to trailer repairs". I will call TOTAL BS on that one. Are you serious? That is such an exageration it is laughable.

On the second paragraph I will give you a bit more agreement on, but with a caveat. There are many variables that are in play. Yes, you need a good dispatcher and co-driver. I made $44,000 last year making between .32/cpm at the beginning of the year and ending the year with .36cpm. That was last year. You are correct that the more you stay out on the road, the more you make. I will also agree with you that I do not think that somebody with only 6 months experience has the skills to be training a new student. I only became a trainer after 1 year and 20 months. That was my choice. I now make .48/cpm. I will make .49cpm next month.

In Summary, CRST is not perfect, but please do not spread things that you are not correct in stating. I have had a good experience with them. I have had my issues with them, but overall they have treated me great. I have been given good equipment and I work hard and take responsibitlity for my success. When i have a problem I make it known and my dispatcher takes care of it for me. (Please note....I run a good truck and I am NEVER LATE ON LOADS!) The good drivers get the good loads and the good dispatchers because those of us who are good deserve the best. If you are late and are a little slow then you fall behind......and you deserve what you get.

Yes, your correct in your statement and I agree. What I get irked about at times is when I hear stuff from drivers that is not accurate. If people want to criticize then so be it, but at least have correct facts when you are criticizing a company.

What is not accurate for you, maybe accurate for others. You don't sit in everybody's truck.

You can call people liars all you want, but there is no credibility on a forum, just here say.

Probably better to be thankful for your good experience, even if you have little empathy for others who have not had it as good.
