I went to CRST driving school in Fontana and I saw firsthand the type of person they hire. From the beginning some people did not know how to socially interact without complaining about CRST. Some people never even gave being happy a chance. I have my complaints about CRST, but there is legitimate complaints and im-just-being-a-sissy complaint.
The training is a joke, but the miles are serious as hell. If you wanna roll, they will keep you running.
My team partner likes to complain about the pay, but does not want to put in the WORK to get paid. CRST is good for motivated individuals who will take responsability for advancing their skills and career. If you expect your trainer to teach you everything, that wont happen anywhere! Their is always something NEW to learn. My partner will ##### and moan because he has a Hours of Service violation on the qualcomm. He says his trainer never taught him and puts ALL the blame on his trainer and CRST. I told him I have never once seen him pick up the qualcomm and learn it. They even sent him to safety department to take a Qualcomm Logs class because of his violations and he still claims noone has taught him about the logs!
What I'm trying to get at is that CRST is not the problem 90% of the time. When you go to school, you will see what I mean. From day one you will meet LAZY NEGATIVE sometimes DIRTY people who will blame the entire world before looking at themselves for a solution to " CRST" problems.
The training program is a joke, finding a good partner is HARDER than learning true driving skills on your own, and getting chains is hard. Besides that, you will run as hard as you can work and you can actually come out ahead if your not LAZY and NEGATIVE. -
Not stealing. Because i signed for it. I had a codriver that was with me so i did not abandon it
I just unauthorized Used it. But i got home -
Oh. Crst. Truly sucks. It does

But never go out of route. With them. Or some one hounds you. Been there seen it They suck. (.) period -
Every company out here has it's problems. It matters not where you go. I remember what CRST was a halfway decent company. I also know the year they went to hell in a hand basket. I started my career off with CRST in 1996. Took 6 months off to try something new and went back. I had 15 Co-Drivers and 3 Students in 4 years. In 2001 something happen I know not what, and the company was never the same.
Wait, I know what happen.............. I LEFT THEM. -
Spoke to recruiter today. Leaving Las Vegas in 2 weeks to begin training. Don't really want team driving
but its a way to get CDL. Awaiting your posts -
I'm glad sir to read your blog. I spoke to a recruiter today, and I feel anxiety about the unknown.
However, 13 year's in the Army, I know how complainers can be. I only want to know that before giving up my apt. and selling my stuff that I am going to get good training. "You fight like you train". I am a people person, and I am looking for miles. I have been reading blogs which advise for new grads solo
is the way to go-Your opinion..?
