    PPl that are new to the industry are looking for ways to get into it and CRE is one of them with there school and driver training program! it sucks all the way around for many ppl that worked there!! I worked for these Mormon xxxxxxx back in 97' 98' 99' and went for there orientation in SLC when they just finished there new dorm style living!! It was awful 6-15 ppl to a room if one person farted it was bad for us all!! lol or if the fat guy snored like a banchie no one got to sleep or if no one took a shower it was funky!! I was lucky to have a dedicated run from dallas to Kc 3 times a week and off on wknds and had my fair share of xxxxx but what really made me leave they don't have compassion for familys my dad was dyeing from cancer and I had to go home to see him before he passed I ran my load I made my request to go home and was punished for it! my dad died and I came back they took my run and gave it to another driver put me on BS loads that didn't add up to 2000 miles a week! so I parked there red century in Dallas were I picked it up from wrote a nice go xxxx yourself letter and flew home! CRE SUCKS!!

    I would file a complaint with OSHA and send them pictures to them. I guarantee you they'll intervene. They'll either keep it confidential or you'll be protected by the Whistleblowers Act.

    That crap isn't called for.

    Unbunch the panties and lay off the caffeine. It was obviously meant to be a tongue in cheek way of pointing out that this is common and that OP is not alone in his experience.

    I'm pretty sure Joetro was referring to people who have options, but still ignore the warnings. I've read them myself where a 'I'm going to change the world' wannabe thinks his experience will be different. I just shake my head, and say GOOD LUCK.....:biggrin_2551:
     
    thauser36 and Joetro Thank this.

    CRE isn't the only company that has bedbugs. A classmate and friend of mine was assigned a fairly new truck at May and he found bedbugs in his sleeper. Instead of arguing with him, they took care of it immediately. It really doesn't matter what company you're with, or what hotel room you stay in. If someone shows up with bedbugs in their belongings, the place is going to be infested. It's how the company deals with it that matters.
