Yep...like Tucker said...they will use just about anyone as a tester. They take you around Lincoln or wherever you have orientation. Not sure on...
Glad to help, and thanks! I'm doing pretty good. Still very happy I chose to come to Crete. I feel like I'm really getting into a rhythm. Getting...
Yep. I went to Central Tech truck driving school before hiring on at Crete. Although tuition has gone up. My class was only 4.5 weeks but $3500....

Day 3...nice run today. My trainer stayed off the clock to get a 34-hr and I did around 560 today. That makes around 1250-1300 in my first three...
Thanks everyone! Today was great! Driving through Utah...it's so beautiful!!! We went a little less than the 500 we planned for today, but we...
