They accepted me for training after being denied by several others. Perhaps I learned what to confess and how to lie.
My OTR training was one long stamina excercise and I was the nite rider
while the trainer capitalized off my miles behind the curtain. Most times I had awoken during the day as we were parked @ the truck stop.
I deceided I did not want to lease and put a truck payment before my mortgage and consequently drive 1900 miles a week just to break even. I went Co Drvr, determining that 3200 miles a week paid the same, $720 wk. I paid off my training fee with lump sum payments out of pocket because I did not like being charged 18% interest. At this point I was making $800 average most weeks.
I was really racking up log violations, I had more than my allowance and should have been suspended. Instead I kept getting load assignments.
I learned how to cheat my logs. No over 11, over 14 or over 70's. I can drive from S.L.C. to Omaha, Ne in 8.5 hrs.
I learned how to budget a household used to a 42K income a year to what is projected to be a 26 or 28K income. I do this on a variable paycheck $400 to $1000 a week (from the truck OTR, I DO!). To date I've made 20K plus from my hire date mid January, 2006.
They assigned me a new manager who likes to let me sit @ truck stops
for 2 and 3 day weekends because I am considered low priority. Every load I get is "critical" to their account. I learned to phone and politely push my recievers to accept early. Now I seem to get all the loads with fixed unalterable appointment times.
Would I reccomend CRE? Yes. Only if you are the most determined to
drive mammajamma...
I drive for them...
