Someone on here wrote something to the effect that trucking is all about hauling someone else's stuff and is not about the company coddling the trucker. I understand that, but sometimes you need to be home on a certain date for things like doctor's appointments, weddings, graduations, etc. How is Crete about getting you home on a certain date if you request it well in advance and remind them regularly?
On a similar note, how are they about getting you home on short notice for things like funerals, family emergencies, etc? It's hard to plan some things well in advance.
