no terminals close to home

Slip seating would be a pain when you are over the road. Besides cleaning up other people's messes as already mentioned, you wouldn't be able to take all the things that make a semi more comfortable while you are on the road. It would just be too big of a pain to pack and unpack a truck that often.

 

Well? What's the rumor?

 

Hey there. Yeah, rumor? Rumors are either true or not true. If somebody is spreading it its probably not true. And besides the point rumors are never to be trusted.

Either give the statement and back it up or drop it. I have seen way too much hurt and pain caused by people, including myself, passing on 'rumors'. I have learned the hard way, tell the thing and back it up. And also have the discernment to know when you should say something or not.

Its just a passionate subject for me guys. Sorry if this is a little loud.

There might be changes coming up in Crete but unless there is any hard evidence of BAD changes it's not necessary to give a warning against working for a company.

Something else to consider...I was the regulatory manager at Ryder and no one would believe the amount of projects I worked on that would have brought huge changes company wide that never materialized. I think that 2 out of 10 projects actually came into fruition and that was only if someone belonging to the Board of Directions REALLY REALLY wanted it done.

PS - Please do not hold my history with Ryder against me. I now have my own safety consulting company, leaving the wonderful world of corporate america behind, working with new and small motor carriers is MUCH more fulfilling!

 

Hey there. I'll give a solid 10/4 on that. Thanks for putting it that way.

Even if there is going to be some "serious changes in 2 or 3 years" he will have his experience in and can scoot on down the road to another company.

Heard nothing but good things about Crete. Try to locate some of their drivers and talk to them.
