    The company ran me so hard I could eat once a day or take a shower. Literally 0 time to do both. I also had to call payroll every check to get it fixed. I had to pay my own way home for Christmas. They don't do maintenance on the trucks. Just stay away from this company. I went to SWIFT due to lack of experience but anything beats CRST.

    Did you team with someone or were you solo?

    Wow! No bathroom breaks, fuel stops, reset's, nothing like that? They "forced" you to keep running. No wonder people hate CRST...……….

    Sounds like poor trip planning. Or a bad codriver who wouldn't let you know you were stopped for fuel. I run myself hard with tight margins sometimes, I hate having to take a 30 break, but you can fit a shower in there. Plus grab some food/drink on the way out or carry a small bag or cooler for "side snacks" that are easy reach.

    Better to run than sit. Godspeed on your future endeavors.

    CRST always keeps you running. There is still time to grab some food during the break, fuel stop, driver switch out, etc. Usually grabbed a shower at the end of every run.

    If you're on a "high value" load they will complain and threaten to pull you off it if you stop before driving for 100 miles. No matter if you're hungry or anything. About 70-90% of the loads I did with them was those. Then here at Shaffer I got a load like that and they said nothing when I stopped before 200 miles to fuel

    The sooner drivers stop working for crap companies with crap pay, the better off we all are. But it’ll never happen..
