    What is the big deal? They pay for your training, get your CDL, boom, done. Why do old timers give them such a rip?

    Because they force their new drivers into a lease purchase. They dont train their drivers well, and no offense to you they usually hire the bottom of the barrel.

    They also want you to train new drivers and if you don't want to, they will force you out of money by cutting your miles. Negative checks only go so far. Can't prove it, but that is how they worked. Now they have been merged/bought out by Prime.

    He tried to pull into the parking garage at SLC Airport lol. Was an older story from a few years ago. The old joke was he was a trainer picking up his student driver at the airport.

    CRE is the bomb, yo. If you go to their training you get to participate in learning their rap song!
