Rocky Mountain Transload:Bad

I drove for RMT in the oil fields of Colorado . The tires on our trucks were like racing slicks. All of the drivers were blowing tires left and right. I blew 4 tires in 5 months. I wrote up in my inspection reports that my tires were bald and illegal. You can get fined big time if you don't have the legal tread on a big rig.
The other night I went to an oil well and unloaded 50,000 pounds of sand in a bin. It would not all fit. The foreman for the Fracking crew helped me unload, but eventually I had to stop because there were 15 trucks waiting for me to get out of the way. I was holding up the whole crew. The foreman told me to take the remaining 800 pounds of sand back to my company.
This morning I got a call to come into the office. My supervisor fired me. He said that it was because I brought back sand and because I blew another tire. He full well knows that we sometimes bring a few thousand pounds of sand back. Every driver has had to do this from time to time.
He also knows that my tires are like racing slicks. In fact, the other drivers have razzed me about driving such a dangerous truck. Other drivers have blown 4 or 5 tires over the summer.
This guy is a liar and I want to see him get canned. His name is Greg. Don't work for this company. They'll lie to you to keep you around. They'll tell you that it's going to get really busy. Then when they want to get rid of people they pull out a file that shows when you dropped a piece of lint in the office on accident.
"Yeah, see, you dropped lint in the office. We can't have that sort of thing going on here, you're fired."
I've been driving for 12 years and I've never been treated like this. Greg is the biggest liar and thief I've ever known. He has some of our drivers tools. If I had the money I would take him to court and sue him.
Again, that's Rocky Mountain Transload.......or I call it Rocky Mountain Cronies.

 

These are the dumbest questions I've ever heard.1. When you drive a truck you drive what you're given. All you can do is bug the mechanics about fixing any problems. If they don't respond there is nothing you can do. You can quit and go somewhere else but you'll run into the same thing. After 13 years of driving I have found out that no matter where you go there is always something. However, one thing that shouldn't be happening is for Greg to chew his drivers out when they blow racing slicks on 100 degree days.
2. You didn't read the story very well. Read it again and you'll see that I was unloading sand in a bin so the fracking crew could frack. They were waiting out on the main road to get on location but had to wait for me to finish. Again, if you read the story you would see that I would obviously have been the last truck since there was absolutely no room left in the sand bin. The foreman of the fracking crew told me to blow out on top of the bin and that his men would shovel it in as the fracking pumped the sand down the well. If you've ever hauled sand you will know that blowing sand on top of a bin takes longer than blowing it inside the bin. Eventually the foreman got impatient and told me to take the remaining sand back to the yard.
3. Again, if you have ever hauled sand you will know how much sand you have left by tapping the side of your trailer. You can feel how much is in the trailer by sound and by how solid the tap is. It was 800 pounds give or take 200.
4. Anyhow, that was two years ago, and I could care less now. And yes, Greg did take one of my tools. He was a thuggish kind of boss. I didn't even ask for it back because he was the kind of guy that liked to yell, rant, and rave....and fire people. That's it in a nutshell.
5. You should come up with some better questions because these ones don't drive any point home.
