TransAm Trucking Pushed me to do illegal driving

"Go moderate something?" That's what I'm doing.
Let us know when you find a job and how things are working out for you.
Just as an aside, I had breakfast this morning with a couple of our friendly competitors and I asked them if they'd be willing to give someone with your background and attitude a shot at a driving job. The answer was a unanimous no.
But don't let that discourage you. Somebody will hire you. That fact alone says quite a bit about the standards some companies have.

 

I'm just going to be real. They ARE upholding the higher standard. There is more that can be said at any time and the way that your information was handled was correct. The whole clapback thing you have spoken of, won't really work with staff and if you try it with members, you'll get a handsome amount feedback.

 

If Carolina Cargo won’t touch you..that speaks volumes..

 

Maybe Western Express but even then that might be a crapshoot.
And that company is a “rogues gallery” if there ever was one..

 

LMAO. You can't discourage me. I don't show you the respect that I show to potential employers because you mean nothing, absolutely nothing to me. Period. Your opinion is nothing to me. I have reacted to what you have said as a courtesy of conversation because you decided to respond, albeit without actually answering any questions I asked. You move me not at all. You don't get that you are not important at all to me for me to extend to you the respect that I show to those with whom I am speaking regarding future employment. I don't CARE who or what you are because this is basically an anonymous online forum. You have continuously projected a certain attitude upon me that you are convinced that I have, yet you don't know anything about me, save a few bits of information from the posts I have offered. You most definitely don't know anything about my character nor my personality. Now, I won't bother responding to any more of your posts because you as of yet have had nothing profitable, in my estimation, to say. I will not be keeping you informed as to my future employment. Now, have a good evening, enjoy feeling like you really told me off, and please remember that you are as significant to me as a bug on a windshield. Wipe, wipe...gone.

 

When Trans Am trucking sent a recruiter to my school to do a presentation, not one student was even remotely interested in going to work for them. Some of the students had pretty extensive criminal records and they were like screw that. TransAm trucking is not a good company to work for. I’d drive Uber or flip burgers before I’d work for an unethical company like them.

 

Continue arguing. First REO6205 inserted him/herself into a discussion and offered advice that was not part of what I asked. Second, I have only responded to what this person has said in the posts. Third, I most definitely am free. Where have I said anything about expecting to start anywhere but where I can get employed? I have 0 expectation other than hopefully I find a job to eventually turn into a career. No, I am not that entitled one. Good try projecting that on me. After this, I will not be responding to your posts, either. You do not mean anything to me, the same as REO6205. Have a good evening and enjoy thinking you really told me off.

 

I appreciate the feedback. Though it certainly is not preferable as a company to start off, if that is my choice for getting my foot in the door in the industry...I am taking it.

 

They didn't decline me due to background. They had declined my application before I spoke to them. I ended up calling them and they said that they turned down my application because I am outside of their hiring area.
