C R england wants me to come to salt lake city to take their refresher course. Should I do this and drive for them as a solo company driver after the training? Or should I fork out the money for a local iitr truck driving school for 4500 dollars because I have no experience and get a letter of intent to hire from swift or werner? Also, as a woman, is C R england a bad place to work? Thanks-
A refresher course is for an experienced driver without recent driving. I don't think a refresher course for a person with zero experience is even in the picture for you. Good luck.
can't you go back to your former school and inquire as to how much a refresher course there will cost..?? the schools i have worked at, have either charged $1,500 or $1,000 for a refresher.. as fir CR England, i can only repeat what i hear and that is they try to get you to go team or lease your own truck, which i highly advise you stay away from... you can try swift and werner, but the same thing applies here as well, refresher training...
we do quite well indeed....why drive OTR or local or regional when i get paid the same to stay put in one place..?? and get actual overtime..??? and weekends, holidays..off.??
I had a nephew who went to Swift with no experience. They had their own school, he had to commit to them for a year I think. Though he left Swift after his time was up, he got his CDL A (XT). I went through a school and many companies back then (14 years ago) reimbursed you a percentage of your school cost. But do stay away from the lease programs. As for teams, to each his own. You will get more miles and for a woman it may be safer to have a partner, at least until your get a year or two under your belt. Personally I hate trying to sleep in a moving truck.
why sure...first and foremost, i'll help LOOPIE jump off a cliff.....then if he survives, we go onto step 2....... i think its gonnabe a 12 step program for LOOPIE....
