    Is that really the foot you wanted to start out on?The whole.."Take me,or Im gonna sue!"
    Times are tough,but you shouldnt have to threaten legal action to maintain your spot with them.Just my 2 cents,and I do hope it works for you.Ive heard too many negative things abourt cr.I hope you become a turning point in positive posts about them :occasion5:

    I don't think that she said that she got as far as a lawyer threat but, she did talk about filing a complaint (whatever that means).


    Anyway ...... not exactly the way that I would want to start out with a company.

    It's never good when the "newbie" gets a rep. right outta the gate.


    Meh.... whatever.

    Yep folks get sent home all the time for background issues and, if you've already started the school ... you owe them in full for it even if you didn't complete it.

    Read some of the othe England threads on here.

    Pay = not much. I'm sure that someone who has the current figures will chime in soon.

    You pay for your own food when OTR and sleep in the truck just like any other driver.

    I would not hand them money because if you do not pass the course they do not make you pay for it. I did not sign a lease. I am just working for them at the moment. I am not through phase two yet.

    No you do not have to sign a contract if you pay them outright but i would not do that if i were you because if you do not pass the course they do not make you pay for it.

    Why hand them money so that you can have to chase them up later?

    People, this is just a case of someone spewing bullcrap without even knowing what they are talking about. England gives you the course for free if you don't pass it and they send you home. They don't care about your money. They get money from the government that helps them pay for the course that you are taking. So why would they chase you if they give you IN WRITING an agreement saying that you don't have to pay unless you pass the course.

    This guy is an ignorant.

    Fawne your quote reads.
    The class room was less than desirable and was hard watching your friends be sent home.
    Then your quote reads later.' I happened to have good instructors and a great trainer".
    You are contradicting your self. Was it less desirable or did you have good&great trainers??

    Just because the classroom was not desirable does not mean that the trainers were bad (duh).

    Quote. Turns out they wanted to send me home to.but you persuaded them to take you back after they sent you to the bus station and convinced them to give you a job.
    I ask you this why would you do that?? Did you beg and pled with them??

    I did not have to plead with anyone. I simply told the truth and that was it.

    Quote. I will stay with this company for quite a while.
    Iu just want to no why?? After you persuaded them to give you a job and they brought you to the bus stop.
    I did not persuade anyone. I told the truth and they realized they were wrong. They didn't have to be begged. Get for real. Why would anyone beg for a job? I have a life and did not come to a trucking company to beg for a job. I came because I wanted to get on the road.

    Quote. They were all sent home meaning your friends for reasons.
    Did you start to think something might be wrong at this point or was it at the bus stop??
    No I think that when there is drugs and alcohaul involved that is a good reason.

    After reading this thread you posted I was thinking everyone out there was full of $ hit. But what you Fawne have said has really made me see how I would not want to be treated. Treat others as you would want others to treat you!!!!
    Then stop trying to read between the lines when you have not been to England.

    I am so glad I read this post because you alone made me switch who I was going to start out with.
    No, you read it and decided on your own who you wanted to go with. I had nothing to do with that. So stop trying to lay blame for your own decisions. I am not here to persuade you to go to England or any other company. You can make your own choices. Just remember when you do make your choices, you lay in the bed that you have made.
    After reading in here all the bad reviews I didn't no what was true or not. But when you said they brought you to the bus stop and you convinced them to take you back,and sending all your friends home... That would piss me off so much they Cr England would have to use there armed guards against me.
    Where is the armed Guard at CR england?
    There is a security guard (1) and thats funny because I don't see him holding a gun to anyone's head.
    Now I no why they have them there not for your protection but there's. I hope you do well and hope to see you on the road. I thought this was report a bad company forum????[/QUOTE]

    Some people have nothing better to do with their time than to blame other people for their poor choices in life.

    Woman, I hope I don't see you on the road. I want to see people on the road that can handle the long haul. People who have stamina. People who don't drink and drive, or do drugs.

    I want to see people who are able to pass all of the tests that I have had to go through. People who don't have to stop at every truck stop to pick up ###### and eat chicken.

    Get over yourself.

    Woman you have a real problem with lying. You need to get off my thread and take yourself somewhere else.

    You say you were not being negative yet everything you said was negative except for the bullcrap blow sunshine up my arse at the end. You have a real knack for bull.

    So did you file a sexuall harrasment claim against them? So they would be forced to address the issue, so it wouldn't happen to any one else.?
