Looking to hear what others think of CRST..

That's the best you got? Tell me why.

 

Thank you sdaniel, I appreciate your responses.

 

97 was quite a long time ago so I would assume (hope) that things are different now. I personally know a couple people who have been through their training and are nearing the end of their 8 months contract, 1 is leaving and going somewhere else, the other is staying and I will be his co-driver once I get through school, maybe I should have said this in my opening post but I wanted open honest opinions. I was hoping to hear from a few more than 2 or 3 here that might have some first hand different insights to what it is like working for them. I know there's good and bad everywhere. From what I have learned crst is pretty good to the people who actually wanna drive and are on time etc. and the crybabies get to sit alot.. I am a work alcoholic no matter what I am doing so I think I should be just fine with them. I know the pay is very crappy but I am already preparing for that, I think if you go in prepared for the worst then you are already 2 steps ahead of most. Just my opinion anyway.

I still welcome thoughts from anyone else who wants to chime in with their opinions and I'd like to thank everyone who already has!

 

Yes I do have a team mate, and I do trust him, explicitly. But, like everyone should I still do my own homework. This is a huge career move for me and even though it is a lifelong dream I am not foolish and will never enter into any situation with blinders on. And yes, he lives near my home in Florida, even though I am up on Long Island right now for work, home for me is Florida.

He assures me I will be fine. I am reading everything I can now and I've taken the practices tests a few times and done surprisingly well (84-95), except airbrakes and well I didn't know a darn thing about airbrakes so I'm actually proud of the 52% I got right on the test LOL

 

I surely will !!
