Training with CR England...

Was reading your story on here Biker and glad to hear you had a positive experience and seems you have realized what many have realized, the CB Rambos, Truck Stop Commandos and Super Truckers who think they can do things their way or the "old school" way in todays world with todays laws and crack downs are a dying, obsolete breed. Each company has its ups and downs and companies as large as CRE or Prime Inc.(who I was with) are not going to have 100% satisfaction rating among its employees. Most of the people who would post something positive can't because they are busy working and making money the right way and legal way as well as taking what time they do have for rest, laundry, talking to family, etc, etc.

 

How much were you paid total for those 25,000 miles?

 

Yeppers, with this resession and the hiring cuts, I will be signing up with CR England just so I can get a job and gain some experience for a year.

Everyone else seems to be not hiring now and I cant wait till next year to get a job

So Biker, hope you can keep us updated and I will toss my coins in here too.
I get my CDL this week if the tester shows up then will get CRE to send me my ticket,,,,,,,,, "cuz I've got a bus to ride"

I can understand how you feel. I was always told to first get the experience and then be selective on the job you prefer to do regardless of the economy. I read on MSN money an article yesterday where the author speculates the initial signs of an economic recovery may appear in June, 2009. I certainly hope so.

Best of luck & keep us posted !

 

Does anyone know how is the training if you already have your cdl.

 

Not yet Tina, But by next week I should have a bit more to report, since I have My CDL-A and all endorsements and will be heading to training.

 

can any current lease operators at CRE shed some light on the lese program as it compares to central's.
i've read about this variable mileage payment, and it looks crippling, # 14c/mile

 

and they just keep coming......

 

I may be mistaken, but I thought I read where jack posted that biker did not stay with cre?
