CRENGLAND physical question.
For anyone that has gone to CR for training and took there pre hire physical I wanted to ask if they 1. have you take off your shirt and 2. check for hernias.
I ask this because I have a pretty good protrusion of the belly button (called an umbilical hernia-rare but it happens) and I am concerned that they might fail me because of this. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Repete is 100% correct. CRE is at the bottom of the heap as far as the major fleets are concerned. Just look @ their safersys numbers, that should scare you away!

I agree with repete as well. IF you can pass a DOT physical on your own, then there are plenty of companies much better than CRE to talk with.

Problem is, I really don't have anywhere else to go for training for my cdl with no up front cost. I understand there are better companies than CR, but that is besides the point here. Right now all I care about is hearing from people that went to CR for their cdl and know exactly what they do as far as their physical is concerned.

In 12 years, no doctor doing my physical has ever made me take my shirt off. They usually DO have you drop your drawers for a hernia check. I concur, I would work at McDonalds before ever considering England.

We men...we tend to dismiss a lot of "stuff" when we chat with doctors.
