Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

If he is getting an inverter for health reasons (for microwave, fridge etc) then that was the going price for the inverter, wires and battery box mounted breaker. The CPAP's they make the drivers buy were 12 volt.(or at least were when I was there) I know because I was assigned a truck that a sleep apnea driver had before quitting and it had an extra 12v plug wired direct to the one side battery box and mounted right over the edge of the drivers side sleeper cabinet...right where you'd crack your head if you rolled over too far.

 

That stuff doesn't cost 900 ####### dollars. I was prepared to get screwed over and pay 3 or 4 hundred, but these guys are regoddamndiculous. The people that run this company...

 

I agree, always thought that was a scam...but, like a plywood salesman's prices right before a hurricane...they charge what they want and get away with it. One of the many reasons I chose to wave bye-bye. If they publicized all their dirty little tricks, they wouldn't have any fresh recruits...I tried to bring as many of their problems to light here and on the previous thread...but it got so negative it gave the appearance that I was nothing but a trouble making hater...live and learn I guess.

 

SuperSnackBar, thank you for trying to help others see the light.

 

man I didn't know they made such a big deal about following your fuel solutions to the T, if it says only get 50 gallons.. only get 50.
had that phone call today...

The ridiculous card that ALL DEPARTMENTS like to play is "DRIVER ABUSE" when it is a weekend/holiday or any other time that is convenient to deflect responsibility from themselves and try to turn the table on the driver....claiming the driver (Not mentioning that the driver was pissed due to a 566 mile load over 2.5 days) was abusing them with profanity. One of Crete's Infamous Mottos "The Driver Will Always Be The Fall-Guy" !

 

Relax, even if they gave you a service failure for your language, they will refuse to mail a copy out. I complained about that. I told her that I wanted to frame it and hang it next to my deer head. And the patch and safety pin. Nah.

Unlucky me, I'm taking a long reset in Vegas.
