I am going to be heading out to my training with CRST in a few weeks. I am a new driver and dont know what to expect. I would love some feedback about this part of my job!! I am teaming with my husband after the training period.I will probably get a male trainer which once again makes me nervous!!! Any advice on how to make this smoother and less uncomfortable.... anybody know anthing about CRST the good or bad.
Thanks and any other pointers u have would be great!!

Welcome Nursebe.

It might be a little easier to answer your questions if you let us know a little more about what you want to know.

Is your husband also a new driver? Have you spent any time in a truck on the road?

I don't know anything about CRST so can't say anything one way or another about them, or their training...maybe someone else with knowledge about them and their training will be able to give you some feed back.

Watch you pay check's, somethimes they will stop payment. When you go to get your money, it will not be there. This normally happens if you say you are quiting. So be sure to get your money, before you say you are quiting, this happened to a friend of mine, she never got her money. Do not become an owner operater through this company people have gone broke that way.

WOW GUESS I MISSED THAT POSTING BACK IN JUNE...

MISTAKE #1 YOUR A NURSE AND GOING TO DRIVE A SEMI? Most people that actually are certified RN make over $20 an hour..u will never make that in a truck!

MISTAKE #2 Trying to commit "marriage suicide" by confining 2 people to a little closed in area that can NOT stop because there are delivery appointments to make.

MISTAKE #3 Your already showing your intelligence by not doing your homework for training schools and job placement centers.


Wonder How Nursbe Turned Out For A Driver? LOL..Is her team driver still ALIVE?

Have a Merry X-Mas,

I don't know anything about CRST but if you want prefer a female trainer theyll give u one upon request because of the sexual harrassment issue.
