Hello to all out there, i got a wierd story to tell everyone. So my orientation with CRST is this monday, for the last week ive been stressing saying my goodbye's and packing to get ready to go over the road. Well i work up this morning and decided lemme take a look at craigslist and see whats out there job wise locally, i saw a job for a Dump Truck Driver and decided hey why not go apply i got nothing better to do and i might as well take a shot in the dark at it hoping maybe ill get a call because i have experience driving Dump Trucks. At one point this moring i said to myself......man it's been almost 3 years since i have drove Dumps he'll probably take one look at my resume and say sorry bud but it's been a while and we need someone with recent experience, but something told me just try and you might get it. So i go in and thiers another guy in there already appllying, the boss comes in sits down and says you guys ready for a double interview? sure we both said. So he starts drilling us with questions senerios, shows us the equipment and even say you ready for a road test? im thinking what are the odds? so we both road test operate some of the construction equipment like Bobcats & Tractors then go back inside the other guy finishes and he stays back with me to get my finished app, then he turns to me and gos, you know ive gone over about 20 apps and got about another 20 to go over but ima tell you now your one of the top 2 just by what you've shown me, im thinking ok ive heard this before but i stayed positive about it all. I thanked him for his time then left, well 3 hours later he called me and said you want a job? at that point im thinking you got to be kidding me? but in a good way, so to make a long story short i start tomorrow at 8am getting 17 bucks an hour and getting to come home to the family every night!!! I gotta thank god man it's been so long since i drove i questioned if i would ever get to drive locally again, whish me luck guys im nervous but thankful
What are the odds???
