    Thanks in advance to any replies and/or suggestions.......For personal reasons I decided to go with England to renew my cdl on the 6 months commitment deal.....my dilemma is that I just found out that on the 2nd Wednesday of schooling/training my daughter has a surprise for me and I need to be available at no later than 6pm......she lives in Rancho Cucamonga, not far from school......can anyone tell me if this is doable? This surprise is too important to my daughter and I'm wondering if I should just reschedule my starting date.....Thanks again.....:biggrin_25519::biggrin_2551:

    Never gonna happen. You are a commodity, a piece of meat worth nothing. No one will bend an ear or lend a hand.

    Unless you are sneaky and get and out and tell em to go to hell if a problem comes up.

    No schidt. Get treated better in Afghanistan by Taliban then CR England. Yeah call and reschedule. lol They will make sure and put you on the double secret probation list. Half rations. Any other thing they can think of. Call and tell them to shove their cheap freight up their poop chutes. You are a human and are going with some company that treats you that way.

    As a previous C R England employee. I beg you to not go, I'm being serious. There's no way in hell they're going to let you see your daughter. When you're training, you're regarded by them as a piece of meat.
    There's no one to talk to about this. There's company policy and that's the word of god to them.

    If you can change please go to Prime INC in sprinfield MO. 1 year contract but they treat you better and you get all training from CDL test training to OJT with one instructor (I used to be one) Its guaranteed 600 a week after you get your license and they will advance you 200 a week to be paid back at 25 a week once you are hired (after testing.) YOut train for 40,000 miles from start to finish unless you think you need more. best big carrier program out there and its free for one year. Freight is good too both solo and team.

    @Suza, as a driver advocate, do you hear a lot about the horror stories that happen with CR England? On this site, along with others, your company is regarded as the worst of the worst. Contacting a driver advocate at this point would seem counter productive, as it seems like CR England has an overall driver treatment issue, not a lack of communication.

    You are better off going over to the In and Out Burger in Fontana and dropping off an app there. Sure it is burgers and fries and not that bright, shiny rig with the deceptive "classy" logo. But you will be a valued employee and make at least as much, probably more, and be home every day. There you will serve the meat, not be a piece of meat.

    Don't give in to being an exploited human being. Stop the madness. Just say no.

    So my daughters surprise went extremely well, was release from school at around 1pm, it was a half day school schedule and off duty at 1pm.... So far, I'm yet to see any of the horror stories I read so much about England......I'm not saying that they don't happen.....just saying I'm yet to see anything to suggest I've made a mistake......of course, this is all very simple for me as I have over a 1/4 million previous safe miles with KLLM but my license expired.......I will say that there is a bunch of knuckle heads going thru school whom I just can't see as truck drivers.....I hope I'm wrong. And by the way, my daughter's surprise was field level tickets to see the Yankees vs Anaheim in Derek Jeter's farewell tour.....
