    Pretty much! I guess it is what you put into it but they are on the bottom of the feeder companies. But Like I said good Luck!

    Long bus ride?

    When you step of the bus and see all the drab looking brown buildings you'll think you passed through the twilight zone.

    What did I do?

    Then when you hear them talk the first time you'll say... "Huh"? :biggrin_255:

    The thought of getting back on the bus will cross your mind but then it pulls out.

    You're stuck! :biggrin_2559:


    Make the best of it. Good luck! Things can only get better from there.

    Why not try Prime, the are decent, give no problems so far for husband. He did start with them having a cdl and experience already. Is a company driver of a lightweight truck which pays a few cents more.

    Prime was not one of them i looked into but i did check others and apparently Orlando isn't a "hiring zone". CRST was the only that would take me but i ended up getting stuck with going to Iowa instead of the training facility in Texas which is a whole lot closer to me. But i'm just happy to be finally going and im going to make the best out of it. I will defiantly post my thoughts when im finished with this thing. Stay tuned, folks! :biggrin_255:

    Good for you; stick it out with CRST. In a few months you can move on if you want, no big deal.
