    Sorry to ruin the fun, I tweaked the title so people wouldn't have to click through to see that it was a thread about UPS :biggrin_2558:

    So future readers can be in on the joke, the original title was something like "Need god info."

    to start thanks admin for my corection i typed this pretty late after a full dayy of orentation, no I do not have an app in yet I havnt been home since sunday but when i get back, I heard that before driving you must do some dock work could be three years before driving :biggrin_2552: that dont sound good but the pay sounds crazy good just what i need to get back on m feet, just finished orentation with CRST and they seem like a company with the intent to cover their behind and weed out the bad drivers If you had a choice? I think i already know the answers lol:biggrin_25515:

    What a difference...UPS Freight (union job, great bennies and retirement) and CRST (a bottom feeding dweller, training outfit)

    Tough decision, think looong and hard about it!
