    [QUOTE="Hang - Man";3746669]Absolutely, and i hope you dont think i am slamming you--its just that your timing couldn't be more perfect. The other poster i was talking about just a couple of days ago said very similar things but much much worse --so maybe i am lumping you in with he/she because of the similarity.....[/QUOTE]
    You were slamming the OP in this thread just like you tried to do in the other CRE thread you just linked----NOW you're trying to back out of it, Mr.1year Ex-driver who joined last month and already have 350 posts??? What's the rest of your story???
    You made some reference to a mistake on your part ended your career but now you appointed yourself as the major forum thread debunker!!!

    All those forum members who think the health department will do something about the bedbug problems live in a fantasy world. This problem has been on every national and local news channel--do a Google search! The USA is in a major bedbug infestation problem and it has affected high end hotels down to low end motels.

    though its supposedly a separate leasing company, if you sign one of those big leases with CR England, you cannot work for anyone else while you're under that lease, regardless to how many loads they give you or don't. Of course, there's mutual interest but I saw a couple really bad circumstanceswhen a driver manager who didn't really like a driver at all, tried to make him go broke.there are fair outside companies that would be happy to give a person a lease with a moderately small down payment and a couple of years of OTR xperience, even with somewhat bad credit.then you could become fully independent but I say to get out there with a company and talk to as many people as you can, learn how to work the boards and find some connections like my friend Donald did... Now, he's got a really good thing

    So then RizenPhoenix do you have a history with CRE ?[/QUOTE]

    No, but I have read a lot about the history of CRE, not just here either. Plenty of sources out there about just how bad they really are included some very respected publications/organizations.

    yes but some hotels take care of it, some don't. Some hotels shutdown voluntarily to address the issue, some get shut down.some hotels are just too greedy to spend the money or they just don't make the money because it is very expensive. personally, I think that the hotels that are too greedy to spend the money or sadly don't have the money to address the issue should be shut down... That's just my opinion. those things can spread some pretty nasty diseases around in a very short time. epidemics should be addressed, at any cost. neither greed or lack of money forms any justification that I can subscribe to. its not just gross and it's not just an inconvenience. Its a health issue.

    Yep i backed off the OP in this thread --was a little hard on him!
    Never going to back off on the other thread poster --ridiculous --believe it if you want.
    Who said i am a forum debunker , i can have an opinion just like you.
    LOL --what are you referring to ? ("You made some reference to a mistake on your part ended your career" )-- never! -- i don't know where you got that from!
    I quit trucking cause it wasn't for me back then --does that answer your question?
    I didnt know i had to stay under a certain amount of post's on here till i became a "trucker like you" -- i didn't see that in the rules !
    Are there any other questions you have i would be happy to answer them --of course if its OK for me to make another post?
    So i should just believe everything typed in this forum ?

    I am in total agreement with you on that -- all info on this forum points to CRE being -bad!
    I am not saying there are not some that have a very different experience with them and are loving CRE.
    Just like as crappy as Swift looks --i am sure there are drivers that love it there.

    There are no rules on post counts but someone with one year exp. should sit in the background a little instead of acting like you know everything about every company out there! Did you ever work for or know anyone who worked for CRE? Go back and read your posts--I have no desire to!! Do you think your avatar scares people?

    I did a small amount of laymans research after my experience with CR England bed bugs. I didn't like what I found.the biggest reason why the bites swell up so much is because of the toxins that they dump inside of you before they draw your blood. They literally crap out all of the old waste before they take in your fresh blood, and possibly whatever diseases yours may carry.once that's digested, they move on to the next host and repeat the process again. For all of you that are saying blah blah blah, bed bugs are no big deal?that's your opinion, we are all entitled to our opinion. And I say, blah blah blah, it is a big deal. :) I don't think its just me. I don't think we live in a 3rd world country, at least not yet...

    lol, okay, well, excuse me, I didn't realize that I needed to have a bunch of experience to actually learn about trucking and the companies involved by talking to other people in an open forum. it would just make more sense if this forum was for new drivers, seasoned drivers and possibly even more importantly, driver prospects and or wannabes. between the polarities of thoughts on this forum, hopefully a new driver can form his own critical opinion. Thank God for democracy...maybe peoples most important tool!
