If they did that for a ticket, it's a pretty drastic reaction-don't you think ?? Did you leave out the juicey part ???

So they shut you down for 10 hours but then 30 minutes later come to tow the truck? I find that to be a little drastic. I just started with Marten and yes they are kind of tough on logs but shutting you down for 10 hours and then 30 minutes later coming to tow the truck and telling you are fired? I think there is WAY more to this story than what you are saying.jtrnr1951 Thanks this.

thats really not that drastic that stupid point system they have is a bit drastic........i mean it dont matter if a drunk comes off the on ramp runnin 75 mph sideways on a solid sheet off ice at 3 am.....still your fault and are goin to be fired if you are still in your 90 day period thats a company i wished i could have retired from.......yea buddy

I know there's more to this story. 1st off where you sleeping during the log class? they told every body that they don't play with the log book. Run it legal or your gone. 2nd if YOU got a ticket for a log book that YOU control. Don't you think thats on YOU? 3rd was there something wrong with your phone.? Why didn't you can your team leader and get them involved in this? Thats what they are there for. I've gotten a speeding ticket (which I got out of) and no one said a thing to me. I also got a letter of commendation the other day for completing my 90 days with a perfect log score. So there has to be more to your story.

I've seen other companies use the same thing and it works very well. The point system is designed to make sure drivers understand that they where hired as professional drives and as such they will be held accountable for there action. It's the same thing the Fed's are getting ready to do with CSA 2010. Drive it safe and legal or park it. 19 yrs and no at faults, Log or weight tickets. It's not that hard.

How is a drunk hitting you at 75mph your fault? Now that is very drastic in my opinion.
-
tell marten that
-
Sorry not buying it. A drunk driver hits you at 75mph and Marten says it's your fault? Again sounds like people that had a bad experience at Marten so now the company is run by the most evil people around.
-
it never did happen to me and the points thang aint that bad its just the fact that ever thng is doubled in ur first 90 days and i just didnt like haveing to drive around on pins and needles all the time like i said they just werent a fit for me i never had no real problems with them

To anyone who has been with MARTEN
, will they take on a newbie fresh out of school? I'm anxious about getting on the road when I graduate
