I'm back home until Monday. Got in early last Friday. I spoke with my dispatcher and she's gonna hook us up with a tractor on Friday. My co-driver and I are going to meet up on Saturday to inspect the truck for any maintenance issues, clean it up, and move our stuff in. I hope we don't get a junker, that's all I can say. If it's bad I will probably just request another one. It can't hurt to ask. Most of their trucks I've seen aren't that old. They use the Freightliner Columbia now and they aren't too bad.
As far as the loser trainer, I talked to dispatch and gave them the low down. I was his fourth student and I'm pretty sure none of the other ones had the balls to say anything. They just did their time and went on from there. I personally don't want to get him in trouble but after what I saw, it's just something I have to do. He needs to be re-trained himself!
Anyway, it seems as though the rumors of bad CRST trainers isn't too far off. I will also say that my co-driver's experience wasn't so bad. His trainer was good and actually showered too! So there's some good ones out there, it's just the luck of the draw. I would consider becoming a trainer but I don't think I could deal with someone new every month, and then having to trust their driving skills enough to sleep behind them. No thanks!
