Not to burst your bubble but you’re with a mega now and thinking about going to another mega because a recruiter called you wanting you to come work for them? A good company will not come looking for drivers, you will have to work at getting on with a good company. Just take it slow and always do your research first!
And don’t burn your bridges!

I knew a guy who drove for 45 years for Crete. I know others who say it’s probably the best place for someone like me. Give me your opinions… please.

Tomorrow makes 28 days out on the road. Headed to the “OC” tomorrow afternoon for 3 days off. I’m ready for some down time!!

We’re at the Pilot in Buffalo, Tn tonight and I’m ready for some shut-eye. Today was a tough day on state routes. Power lines down, trees over the roads and icy roads. Feeling sorry for those without power tonight in this area and those who have trees on their homes. It’s pretty bad down here. Long lines getting propane, truck stops here running out of diesel and gas.

You might as well stay were you are…. Just another mega with a different color paint job. Theres a thread on here about them.
You need to be looking for a smaller outfit. Put in everywhere and then look over what would be the best fit for you. @Chinatown would be a good help to find you a good place.

Are you still using a Mississippi address?
When trucking companies look at your application, they look at the address on your CDL to see if it's in the hiring area. They don't care if you're living in the truck, it's the address on your CDL that matters.

Crete has it's cheerleaders, and also it's naysayers. Lots of threads to look at.
