    Not really incongruous. I expected much worse. Until I got forced to be a Phase 1 trainer, I was making good money, had some very good students who I consider friends, and had some very enjoyable times on the road. My only complaint back then was not getting home as much as I would like. Once I started training P1, it went downhill.

    I am dropping a load this morning in my home state, then going home long enough for a restart. I will also be emptying out my truck so when I get pre-hired with one of the companies I applied to, I will drop off my truck and go my merry way. The student I have on my truck now will be my last.

    im home now. i was taken out at the end of the day. 2 instructors, 1 other student. the other student got to practice. i didnt. when i was out of the yard gate they said this is your eval. i had a problem with downshifting. i finally got it and downshifted at least 10 times. but they SAY i went over a curb. they scored me 19 out of 19, and gave me an 85%. i was told to go talk to the lead instructor. i told him about my downshifting. and he said thats great, but we have to send you home.

    bottom line- CR England is THE worst trucking company.

    i called swift and they said theyre gonna get me started asap and trained properly.

    hey all. this pegasus62 account i made was to help maintain my anonymity, as at the time i was still at the school and was technically an employee.

    i cant tell you how sorry i feel for all the people that were arriving, as of course they bring in new people every sunday/monday.

    as said, ill be going with swift.

    I got my start at CRE back in 1998. I did what all the smart people did. Used them to get my cdl, and a year of experience then got out.
