He should go from school to an Orientation. Being that he is in Springfield, chances are he is going to OKC for Orientation. He will go for the 4 day orientation and then on the road for the 28 days. I Went to school with them in Louisa Kentucky....I went home for a night between School and Orientation because I lived in between the school and the terminal. I had my mom meet me halfway and she took me home. I then took my personal vehicle to Carlisle sunday afternoon. Seriously, you need to be very careful and tell him to thouroughly read everything he signs. If at all possible, I would not even complete the school and find another way to get his CDL that is not as shady as CRST.
Ok Hubby got class A. Went to OKC for orentation. Was told he had a trainer, everything was great. Gets to where he was to meet trainer and leave from today and well that didn't happen. hubby was left sitting and was told trainer is on his leave and will be there Monday to get him and start 28 days! So we went from 54 days he would be gone to 58 days and that could still change ! Also we were told he would be brought HOME to our house. BS he will be taken to the nearest terminal. So I will have to drive and pick him up! I HATE CRST!!!!!!!!!! Any of you guys want a newbie my hubby is in OKC waiting ready to go NOW!!!!!
i would take him but i got to get the hell away from crst as far as my car could take me crst is #### , your huddy should have read this site before joining hell
i have to say why does every one go to the company traniers to get the CDLs i am gettin my some where else that that?? cuz i want the freedom to chose wat company i want..
I'm with CRST, looking for a co-driver. I'm a smoker, 6 months exp., Haz-mat, good runner, early to shippers and consignees, easy to get along with- no hang-ups. Let's get the job done, don't contact me if you're a crybaby- just change your diaper! I'm in Joliet, Illinois.
Is there anyone on this thread that can actually spell. Or maybe it's required by CRST that you not be able to spell and use at least halfway decent grammer. How about checking what you wrote before you send it. It really sucks when you have to read something over and over just to get the meaning right because whoever wrote it is either stoned or just stupid. :smt119:smt017 Maybe instead of getting a CDL some of these people should go back to school............................... I will say, that this forum has been very informative. I was actually considering CRST. I think I'll get my feet wet somewhere else..........
I'm going to start my orientation with CRST on May 04, 2009. Anyone have any advice. How much money I'm expecting after my 28 days period. A week, stimated. When you get your time off, they drop you any where or on your state yard, so you can get your car.
Do people really think that any company is going to drop somebody at their driveway? Also, they generally don't make you wait for a trainer who's on hometime that's stupid. The time is 28 DRIVING days. If he happens to sit somewhere like Chicago over the weekend he isn't driving. What can he learn from sitting?
