Paying for Orientation at company

For you and the original poster.....

I won't go into the bottom feeder line of talk. But I will tell you HOW you are going to pay that money back.

We have what is affectionately called the "Dumb & Dumber" teams on the road today.

They are called this simply because it involves teaming 2 new hires (fresh out of the truck with their trainer) to help each other out for a few months.

At CRST.........

You will be splitting .22 a mile (to start) while teamed with each other for up to 6 months. In other words, you will make .11 a mile for every mile the truck rolls...or is paid to roll.

Good experienced teams are averaging between 5000 and 6000 miles a week....and splitting up to .50 a mile.

So you see. Even on a great week (7000 miles?) you would only make $770.00 before taxes. More than likely you and your co-driver will average less than 5500 miles a week. About $600 a week before taxes and deductions for your training, orientation, and any other BS they may think of.

If you think you can't afford it now. Just think how broke you are going to be...after going to work for CRST.

 

Why can't you get on with Werner? They'll hire almost anyone...

 

Lmao

 

If you went to a school for your cdl they might be able to help you with other companies. try us express. unemployed then it is your job right now to find the best fit out there for a job.

 

Why would they think you would want to pay them to work for them?

They know you don't know any better. CRST sucks and their quite narcissistic it sounds like.

that looks like a CRST satellite terminal to me.

 

if you have to repay a company or have to pay a dime to attend orientation then i wouldnt go near that company with a 10 foot pole....if they cant feed you and house you while attending their orientation then they are just a low life company to begin with...STAY AWAY AT ALL COST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

It is how the jacked up companies condition you for low pay after you clear the hurdles. After all; if they treated you and paid you like you was worthwhile; down the road you might expect it again....

 

The bad part here is that eventually some schmuck will take the job and they'll get away with it and it'll be easier to talk the next idiot into it, and pretty soon it will become common practice...
