I may or may not be going with CRST. I haven't had much luck with other companies.
However, I need to pay them back for the bus ticket, the physical, the drug screen, and the hotel stay during orientation. I also have to pay for both breakfast and dinner while attending orientation.
After I am hired and am earning money, they will take about $40-50 each week out of my check to pay back those costs.
Is that normal when you have to take a bus to attend orientation with a company?
I'm unemployed now, so I'll have to take out a loan to afford the meals during the first couple weeks while I'm getting acclimated to life on the road. I just would like to know if it's worth it.

Your welcome! I have been to a few companies that did not pay anything. Never would I go to someplace that expected me to pay for anything. The best orientation I ever did was maverick. Class act orientation. They pay you. Pay for your training. Provide food and shelter and pay a sign on bonus. No monies owed. Some places advance a person money. Then take it back. That is not a job. That is a Indian giver.
