    If you dont work inside an office building on Crete property they could give a #### about you. Your as replaceable to them as a shop rag.

    Crete does a lot of things to appear more professional, and they're still a pretty good company, as far as OTR goes. But when they can, they like to let you know that you are their B/!+#, and mean nothing to them.

    That's because a greedy son in law is running the company...look at all the co's where the founder stepped aside and the kids took over agree the company has gone downhill...no coincidence either
     
    Bumper and 48Packard Thank this.

    Startining Jan. 2015.....drivers will have the option.... to have the shop install in the truck...a built in refridgerator/freezer....if driver moves to another truck it goes with him....if driver quits he takes it with him....driver will pay for it with weekly payroll deduction...no mention yet what the total cost will be for the driver

    I read on Crete's Facebook page back on October 28 or so in a post about the profit share that the Crete employee that responds to the post said that good news is coming to company drivers concerning having a pet. If Crete allows my dog to come with me then I would be there in a heartbeat.

    I like Crete's rider policy but how can I have a rider come with me for 3 weeks if every solo has a single bunk?
