    I'd demand compensation. Their equipment failure, your lost time. We don't work for free.

    I would like to thank whoever is installing these APUs...I just happened to be on my catwalk checking out the reefer, and noticed my condenser is hanging on by a hope and a prayer. Bolts have backed out on one side and cant be screwed back in so its been bouncing and rubbing against the back of the truck....and every AC connector was loose enough I could remove them bare handed. I wonder if thats why my compressor took a dump because of NO refrigerant maybe?

    The compressor on the inside of the box shorted and burned a hole in the cap that covers the breaker.

    Im not sure if these things are crapping out on their own or if they are having "HELP".

    Considering when they were being installed in the last batch of trucks, they were joking about how many APUs they were hanging a night mayyyyyyyybe they should slow it the hell down.

    He rolled it, if you look at the bottom of the picture you can see his tire marks. Lucky he didn't go over the overpass.

    When i see crap like that, I just revert to my previous post, "YA JUST CAN'T FIX STUPID."

    Scientist and people with common sense have tried for centuries but have come up with absolutely nothing. Dr Franz Heinrick was quoted in the Scientific Review saying "Stupidity is not something you are born with. It is something one chooses to do of their own free will. There is no logical nor any reasoning for the choices people make. Therefore, after countless hours and experiments, I have concluded that YA JUST CAN'T FIX STUPID."
