Advice on CRST?

I've been driving for crst for 9 months now. The ONLY reason I'm leaving after ONE full year is because I don't like driving teams. My co-driver and I average about 5,000-5,500 miles a week. They have very new trucks. I got my 2017 in 2016. I've always been home on time and without any attitude. The pay could be better but I'm not going to complain. They paid for my training and got me started in my career.

MY 10 ON PLANET HOTH

No, I haven't been to Parleys mountain today. I heard I-80 was shut down so I went straight to salt lake and shut down. I didn't even try to go farther. So far the weather is holding up where I'm at. Not snowing yet but looks like it could.

I shut down in salt lake city until they reopen I-80. Just came from Sacramento CA. On my way to La Salle IL.

Y'all stay safe out there and warm

Scaling After Loading, And Why You Should Do It

CRST policy is to scale anything over 27,500. They pay for the scale too.

I drive for CRST. Going on 8 months now.

1-they have very new equipment (I drive a 2017 that was given to me with 8 miles)

2-my dm (my FM has done everything he can do to get me home when I've requested and I have not been late yet)

3-miles (I've been averaging about 5800 miles a week. Sometimes less but most the time more)

Gyms in major truck stops?

The few I have seen at the T/A's never had anyone actually working out. People were sitting one the equipment watching sports.

Filing my own taxes as a company driver

Thank you Rick. I claim 0 on on my withholdings and then I claim myself, and my daughter and fiance at the end of the year. I do not receive any per diem during the course of the year. So I should be expecting a very nice check.

How would that work if I opted out of receiving per diem on my checks every week? Would I be able to claim it all at the end of the year and get back a good check?
