Ok...so you saying that people don't want to work is not quite accurate. The unemployment rate is at 4.6 percent. I think you should think of it this way: perhaps people are finding other avenues of work that either pay better or are better for his/her situation. Many people are taking work from home jobs. If you can make the same money without putting on pants, why wouldn't you take it? Lol. Some folks are going that route to avoid child care or commuting costs. Both of which can be costly. In our society, if we can't get prompt full service or answers then we blame everyone and say, "they don't want to work." I think thats unfair to say.

“they don’t want to work.”
The big companies get bailed out. The mom and pops get the same stimulus check that everyone else gets.

They claim they can't find a driver to get this load.
So I don't want to leave a trailer just loaded and whatever. They are now discussing flying me back to get another truck , which means I will have to drive back here bobtail to pick this trailer up. Which means at least one more week late. I think they are lying to me. They get $2000 deposit from me if I leave the truck and of course that DAC report. I can't let this ruin my life.austinmike Thanks this. -
Lonesome and Babey Duck Thank this.

this is a very important question to have an answer.kuzima93, Speed_Drums and Babey Duck Thank this. -
I've been trying to get a lawyer to ask if I can get away from this company, but when I talk to lawyers , they always end up being collision or violation lawyers. No one will give me advice on what my rights are in this circumstance. Asking here is sending out feelers for a solution. I will not leave the trailer if I don't have a solid legal statute to reference.
So I don't have the keys, and now I think my company is thinking of sending me on a plane to the yard to fetch another truck and come back to deliver this load. But I am fed up and I just want to leave. This is such a convoluted mess. -
austinmike and UturnGirl Thank this.

Your a contractor, not an employee. There is no work for you. Move into a better company and paid on a w2. This whole thing is your fault to begin with. Now it’s time to fix your mistake and move on.

People are way too scared of DAC. By far, more employers don't use it than does. Even if you get a false report simply dispute it. The company has to provide proof of their side. Yes they can lie, but that's a court case you will win.
In the meantime simply work at a company that doesn't use dac. You'll likely be happier anyway.Last edited: Nov 7, 2021
