    Yes, but the drivers post they cover it during breaks/layovers. Some Crete drivers posted they're gradually getting them; seems they're using the "boiled frog" analogy.

    But the more drivers we hire, the less freight for me. And I already have a lot of free time.

    Eh, a lot of these companies were discrediting my local experience so they fell by the wayside.
    Also, Crete doesn't have a lease purchase program which is a major plus in my book. Read my experience with KLLM if you like. It wasn't pretty.
    It may not be a perfect company, but since I'm throwing everything I own into a $75/month storage unit it's not that big of a deal

    Every KLLM lease driver I see is doing 70 mph, regardless of the speed limit....
