Hey everyone,

I've been reading the forums for awhile now and desided to post. I have been looking for a trucking job since I turned 21 (now 24) but had no verifible income so companies wouldn't hire me. I was self employed and didn't file taxes due to not making enough. I finally got hired by CRST this afternoon. Suppose to start their 2 week school on the 18th.

Just curious, whats you screen name refer too?

[k1ll3rbud]

Well, it was made back in my teen years when I used to smoke, so pot. Which I haven't done for a few years now.. Just haven't come with with a new name yet.

Should of started with this forum. I can see it being difficult for some people to take you serious with a name like that. I could be wrong, oh well. :?

Do you bring your own vaseline or do they provide it for you guys in orientation?

CRST isn't that bad! I have a friend who drives for them as a lease operator but she didn't start her career with CRST, she started with Prime for about a year I think and then JB Hunt and now she has been with CRST for a year running solo and pretty happy. She was team with her ex husband when with Prime and JB Hunt. She considers Prime and outlaw carrier and left cause her ex wanted to go to JB Hunt and they left JB Hunt cause they were getting solo miles and it was getting worse and worse.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm only go with them as their requirments aren't as strict as everyone elses, and their the only ones who are willing to give me a chance after having no verifiable income since mid 2004. I figure if I run with them for a year maybe more doors will open. Kind of nice I only have to sign an 8 month contract also, unlike other companies that are a year. I had from a Schneider driver they were upping their contract to two years.. Don't know if they did or not though.
