beware of roehl transport

very true but in policy book it should state that you cant have a tempory hook up also my truck was worked on many times and over a year not a word was said. your right i should of gotten it in writeing i feel since it wasnt bolted to battery not even connected to battery if they didnt like the set up they could just say so i would of gotten it off the truck. my job is more inportant .

Your right the policy would seem to suggest hardwired setups and not temporary ones. But lets face it, the outcome is the same because you and not the shop installed it and it is hooked to the battery.

I having experience with different company's when seeing this policy automatically would deduce that they only want me to use a small inverter that can be plugged into the dc outlet on the truck.

Whenever you have a question about a company's policy's the lowest person on the totem pole you should be conversing with is the Terminal Manager to clarify the policy.


now im having a hard time finding something else. if i dont find something soon ill be homeless

Well if you have not filed for unenjoyment, you should and then explain the circumstances of your termination if the company tries to fight it.

Drivers should also be saving up money till it equals at least 8 months of living expenses so that you are not all panicky if you lose your job. Trucking has all sorts of ways to make you unemployed so you should be saving from day 1.

 

I think we all should give rich4trucking some slack, things are hard for every body right now

Hey Timtruck your going to scare off all our posters if you keep picking on them LOL

 

I think drivers need to follow the rules, and quit looking for loop holes. If company policy says the shop must install than so be it. You were cheap and looked for a easy way out and put the truck at risk, not very professional! I would have fired you too. The company i work for says the same thing and i am sure i could find somekind of double talk to worm around it but i like my job. You must not have liked yours very much, 40 bucks a week for a month is not alot to pay, bet if you had to do over again you would see that!

 

AGREED!

We don't take kindly to people coming in here and flaming our board or our members.

 

a driver better cover his hind end cuz comps looking for any reason to get rid of drivers
