Soon to be CDL grad in Houston considering Crete?

I'm in Houston, TX and will be completing CDL school at Houston Community College ( which is on the Crete approved schools list ) next month. I'm considering Crete but would like to know if anyone can give some specifics on these jobs posted for the Houston area:

Home weekly, Texas Dedicated Dry Van Driving Job – Houston, TX

Home weekly, Midsouth Dedicated Dry Van Driving Job – Houston, TX

Home weekly, Midsouth Dedicated Dry Van Driving Job – Pasadena, TX

Obviously I'm looking for something regional out of the Houston area that has weekend home time. Thanks for any insight!

 

Called and talked to a recruiter about these positions. They are Georgia-Pacific dedicated runs home weekly out Sunday afternoon, back Friday evening.

The TX dedicated basically runs a 350 mi radius of Dallas delivering to different sites in TX and pays .53cpm after 6 most averaging 2200 mi/wk.

The mid-south dedicated runs TX, LA, MS and OK pays 46 cpm and averages 2600 mi/wk after 6 mos.

The first 6 months as a new driver after 8 wks w/ a trainer pays .41 cpm.

So if anyone has any insight on these dedicated routes or working Georgia-Pacific dedicated in general I'd like to hear what it's really like?

 

Yeah, ultimately I'm trying to get into tankers but it seems most of the tanker companies won't hire you w/ out 1 - 2 years experience. So if I have to do a year or so of dry van or reefer I figure the easiest way for a noob to break in would be on a stable dedicated account but I get even that could be a waiting game. Crete in general sounds like a good place to start though.
