False Accusation of Bribery

Likely to avoid any further potential liability he could cause if he is a criminal, cheat or upset enough to do personal or property damage.

 

The preceeding sarcasm (in red) was brought to you by Lil' Ol' Ladies R Us.

 

Absolute riot.

 

I think we're all a bit bored today.

 

I've got work to do, this is just more interesting.

 

The guy has been with you ten flawless years. I would give him the benefit of the doubt because you can't prove anything. Like someone else said, maybe a lie detector test?

You see anything and everything nowadays. Possibly the driver lied to his dispatcher and the man time stamped his bills and now he's in trouble? There are plenty vendictive people out there.

Then on the other hand I been bribed before. I had one guy who wanted to put steaks back on my truck and meet him around the corner. I had others want money to get off loaded quicker.

If it was me, I would of kept quiet about it and set him up in the near future. To catch someone that is sneaky, you have to be sneaky yourself.

But as it stands, I guarantee you he won't do it again. I would just give him a suspension and let him come back. You terminate him, you have to prove it. Getting a long haul driver in court out of state is almost impossible if the employee sued you for wrongful termination. The judge see's he has 10 years in and you're decision is based on speculation..... $$$$$$$

Some guy gave me $20 to post this.

 

Your work must REALLY suck!

 

No, not at all, and pays well. I just enjoy some good banter, and there's no enjoyable banter when you're dealing with repair invoices and formal reports.
