Grandma is at CR England

My hubby works for them and loves it, and has worked many other places. He says its like any company, you can't take BS from them, and prove yourself. He's a solo driver getting between3400 and 3900 miles a week. He doesn't sit around waiting for dispatch to do there job, he calls shippers and see if he can be loaded early, etc. He makes good $ and has many friends who have there own fleets with CR.

 

I thought they done away with solo company drivers? Teaming or fleacing are your only two options?

 

There is no company drivers, he's an solo owner operator..he's actually looking for a team mate to no avail..he can't stand slackers or messy people LOL So far everyone he has tried out, has slowed him down, and thats a big NO NO...lol. Every trucker we know tells me they never seen anyone who can drive like him...he truly loves it.

Kinda brag on him for a min..but he's in the top 1% of solo drivers. He keeps fuel on the fuel cap..I think thats the biggest problem a lot of drivers with CR have..he had the same prob tell his equinox guy taught him a better formula.. and the $ has roled in ever since

 

I thought this was a blog about "favorite" companies, all I see is a continuation of other blogs trashing more companies, is there a company that CAN be recommended, or is it a myth...

 

Okay, here's 2 big OTR recommendations: Crete and SNI! Not perfect, I'm sure, but the drivers I talk to usually seem to be doing better than average.

A good big OTR company may not exist really.

 

Here's the thing about big companies, they are too big to be uniform.

Huh?

That means that they are more like gravel then sand, made up of a lot of different kinds of stuff all jammed together. There are good parts to them, often times its on dedicated accounts or working out of a particular division. You've just got to be lucky and/or smart enough to land on the right size and texture rock for you.

 

I am a Mormon and .......OUR CHURCH DOES NOT AND WILL NOT GIVE PRIVATE COMPANIES LOANS!!! The church doesn't even finance it's own stuff and runs pay as they go, in other words we build a chapel, the money was already there when the construction started and so on.

So what you heard about England gettign money from the church is indeed Scuttlebutt.
