Just heard back from my recruiter looks like I'm sitting on my butt until the 19th of October see you all out there
Another week with out a paycheck sucks but I'm looking at the big picture so it's not bad plus i get to work on my honeydew list ( repaint the house trim, new carpet and linoleum, sand and re finish the stairs, power wash the deck and fence and seal them) As far as a terminal I don't know I live in Indianapolis Indiana not sure where the nearest terminal is.
you might be going to cedar rapids which is the hq for crst. its the only fully paved terminal so you might be able to keep your truck clean lol
Ceder rapids is a 6 hour drive hope they have one closer to based out of. Driving back over for orientation this Sunday no Grey hound for me it's 11.5 hour by bus.
make sure they pay you the .20 per mile for driving yourself....Also take a cooler so you can save money on food # orientation & on the truck....
in their handbook it states that if you are more than 100 miles from a terminal or drop yard they will usually allow you to take the truck home. They did for me and my codriver. Just a thought for when you get going on your own, but if OK City is closer then thats the terminal you will be at. Theres only 4 main terminals for CRST. Fontana, CA, Cedar Rapids, IA, OK City, OK, and one in pensylvania but cant remember the town.
Frog is closer to cedar rapids than ok city..... He will proabaly take the truck home.... That is what I am hoping will happen to me. How did you get maintenance done...? I figure that the truck will have to get to Cedar Rapids somewhat regular.... or am I wrong?? Frog I will be there on 10/19... Did they tell you why they held you up? Look forward to meeting you?!
