Carolina Cargo....yes or no

What about PTL i had a previous student come into class and say everyone there has a past including himself and said he likes it there. It is forced teams so that kinda sucks but he said they will get you home to take care of business like court and probation plus he said he makes some money not a lot but enough.

just let me say sorry for bringing up an old topic but i can see there is not a lot on here about crete and was wondering if anchorman still worked there if so could i ask some questions. I do have some good ones on here like about hunt, pay, miles, hometime, teams, and training. Thanks.

I would be happy to answer any questions you may have about Crete. Please feel free to send me a private message anytime if you would like also.

i have sent plenty of pm to other guys and not got any back so i probably not doin something right do they come to my email or something sorry not tech savvy at all. Hell i dont even know how to work a smart phone. So ill just ask the questions on here and hopefully other students will be able to read this get help.

so about hunt i hear with crete must have a year of exp to get into that division is it hard to get switched over there? Do you what the pay is over there? I wanna do flatbed but i have heard mix things like; just jump right into it out of school and have read from brett that students should do dry van or reffer first and get used to the road and life as a trucker before trying flatbed.

So do you know how many miles the regional guys are getting per week and are you in that division? are the guys in that division getting there hometime and is it at least enough for a 34 hour restart?

do you know anyhing about teams i heard they split the miles per week and pay each driver .44 cents per mile so if the truck goes 6000 miles each driver gets paid .44 cpm for 3000 miles is that true?

how was training did you run teams the second month of training and was first month easy well let me rephrase that did they push you hard or was that just in the second month?

yea i know thats a lot of questions but crete has always been in my top five companies and i am considering them for teams with a classmate or just solo.

i dont work there but just applied with them today over the phone and he said at your out at least two weeks can stay longer but they need at least two weeks out and for every week your out you get 1 day at home. Hope wilson or other melton guys chime in to really help you out.

Dicskon, TN? Ha!

Just what we need, another reason for drivers to sit in a fueling lane longer at Loves. I avoid that place like the plague. Horrible wait times already. Also, why would I pay someone to do what I am paid to do?

good job sir good job on the spelling but man on that last one i spelled was with a lower case L hoping that would work but guess not. So thunder you p/d or regional and do you know of anybody doin otl (on tour logistics)with averritt?

Looking for work in Nashville, any suggestions?

double-quotes-start.png

ah ok well thats good to know. So hey you know averitt is big in our state just wondering home come you didn't chose them? Are you doing flatbed or dry van with roehl?

double-quotes-end.png

I'm dry van with Roehl.

I had a pre-hire with Averitt. They were in my final 3 list. I just couldn't handle the uniform and shined black shoes bit. I can barely keep up with everything else... lol

Thanks for the info yea averitt is 5th on my list and hell the only reason its there is cause my uncle and grandfather are pushing me to averitt(they are or were truck drivers so i have to listen but not do what they say) i have a good beard and have never been clean shaving so thats why i dont like them lame i know but its me. So how do you like over there was the training rough like what i have heard also heard its short that true also?
