Mental Illness & Driving

Hey that's great!

But what you need isn't for us to pray for your success. What you need is to prepare for your success by starting with our High Road Training Program and our Trucker's Career Guide. I don't know if you've read the career guide yet. If not, make sure you do. And I know you haven't started the training program yet so start on that immediately and make sure you get through at least 75% of it (preferably 100% of course) before you leave for training.

CR England's training is very fast paced. It's a tryout more than a school, as are most of the Company-Sponsored Schools. And that's not a bad thing as long as you understand the nature of it.

A lot of people show up to the company training programs completely unprepared and many have horrible attitudes. Only about 25% of your classmates from day 1 will ever make it out on the road with a trainer. Most will get sent home and will wind up on TheTruckersReport, RipoffReport, and other sites blasting the company for being the cause of their demise. Baloney. Show up there well prepared with our reading materials and our training materials. And show up prepared to face a really tough challenge. Plan on being one of the minority that make it through to being a successful driver.

And I would stop trying to get opinions from people on the Web about companies. They're junk. If you want to learn more about CR England, go to a truck stop and speak with some of their drivers while they're fueling or walking into the truck stop. They'll be more than happy to give you a few minutes of their time. Those are the people you want to hear from - the people who are out there working for the company right now and getting the job done successfully day in and day out.

one of the main reasons i was considering elsewhere was because a driver from this site says steer clear of them, because they try & force you to go OO. Says they have a huge suit against them for this, and that they tend to say they have no trucks so they can try to force this on you. I know that everyone's experience with the same company is going to be different, just don't want to go through all that, be in contract & be screwed. Would love to hear some good feed back on this company

After 9 years, I traded the cubicle for a rolling closet...and never looked back...I'd have lost my sanity, and been one of those "gone postal" people they show on tv....I hated the office politics...loved my job...hated the politics.

I worked for a call center cubicle for the last four years. I quit several months ago because I couldn't take the stress of the calls nor the office politics any longer. I'm looking forward to my first solo truck driving job.
