    Hi everyone hopefully someone can help me out. I wanna sign up for the company training for these two companies because these are the ones that i figured would be good to start off with and i see them everywhere around here in California. I wanted to possibly here from some former students and current company drivers from them. like home time, how training goes, and in general the good and bad of both companies. Also if anyone knows of any other companies that offer training and jobs after graduation besides crst because i cant do teams and central refridge trucking service because i ###### up with them, (tried to sneek fake piss to test with while i was positive for weed... now im clean).

    What baha meant to say was DAC report.Anyway why do you feel crengland is a good company to start out at.What have you read or heard about them?Most the drivers at englsnd sre leasing their trk.Why you ask because England tells them either lease or wait weeks to months for a company trk.Can you afford sitting at home broke and have a school bill?Most the drivers that lease theu England fail.They have the worst rep in the industry and there are hundreds of threads on here and how bad they are.

    my first choice when i start calling companies is knight. ive heard they have good home time schedules. Ive seen lots of cr england on the roads round here so i thought i would ask everyone here but if theres a lot of unhappy trainees with them i would probably pass on them. as for the dac i got busted with fake pee the very first day within the very first hour so i dont know if it would be on my dac because i was not a employee yet. How do i check my dac is there a website? can anyone tell me about knight i would really appreciate it.

    I didn't see that.Not even England will hire with a positive test on your record I don't think.

    It'll probably be on your dC.How long have you been clean?Concerning hometime,with any company and otr plan on staying out 4 weeks even though the websites can get you home every 14 to 17 days.There are no guarantees in this industry.
