So I've been lurking for a couple of weeks, and want to go OTR (wife is of the 'ex' variety, kid lives w/her 300 miles away, no girlfriend, etc). And nearly unanimously, Crete is suggested. They pay 41 cpm, compared to many of the places that pay 30-35. I only found one 'horror' story here, compared with dozens about Werner, CRE, USX, etc. So what's the catch? Why are they paying more, and why are they in need of drivers? It doesn't look like they have a school, is that it? They don't have the big shiny ads in the magazines? Am I missing something?
Should be testing on Friday for my CDL. Tomorrow I'll be at school all day practicing range stuff.
