    The contract at Kirkwood I signed said $2500 if I did not go to work for CRST. When I asked em at crusty they said that is not what it cost em it cost em more. BS. Bunch of liars.

    Just for fun I went looking online to find out exactly what the CRST tuition was/is for that 2 weeks hubby spent in their Detroit school ... and couldn't find it anywhere ... not even on their own website.

    Ah, MORE red flags!!

    After I completed my 8 month contract I received a letter from CRST stating that my Training was a 1500.00 dollar value and that Uncle Sam views it as income so i now owed them like 78.00 for tax's. But to help me out they would take it out of my next 3 checks.

    Funny isn't it? A buddy of mine got off his trainers truck after a week and seeing his paycheck. Ole crusty sent him a bill for $3950. Wonder if Ole Uncle Sam will allow him a tax credit for that? Oooo wait we are supposed to get screwed. I ended up down in Fl so I could ger my license to be changed over. Ole crusty wanted me to wait for a load. No help there financially. Not even a bus ticket. They wanted me to hook up with a Co-driver first and hope to get a load. Paying off my $3950 bill and going to a different company. Thanks to the big crusty I have a myriad of personal and financial issues to deal with before I head back.
