Navajo Express has just abandoned this trainee in a tiny town 1500 miles from home!

One thing to consider on this thread for all parties.

If she is not telling the whole truth or not is not the issue. The issue is that this industry can and has done this type of thing before. No other job can do this.

If you are traveling with a job from California and are in New York and they fire you, they return you to your home. It is a requirement or you would see people getting canned and hitchhiking back.

There is no reason on the earth, that the company could not have returned her to the terminal. NONE.

The employee that kicked her out and the night dispatcher dropped the ball.

The driver is an employee, not a slave or piece of equipment.


The end result, is that we as drivers need to get proper treatment.

 

Very well said and good morning.

 

Good morning to you.

I read your stories and cannot even believe what they did to you as well.

 

Ya its a scarey and a tough thing to go thru especially during the freezing cold.That's when you know you have a lot of support and everyone is willing to lend a helping hand.The driver my boss tricked into following him to to the receiver to fire me quit as soon as he got back to the yard.He could not believe what he was seeing unfolding before his eyes.He called the hotel and paged me.He was going to come pick me up.

 

I read these additional comments on the phone and just could not believe the number of "drivers" who feel the company did nothing wrong.

It is because of this mindset, that companies have been able to get away with this.

It is quite apparent that the drivers cannot fathom their treatment is not ethical.

 

Some ppl refuse to believe a company could do such a thing and like carriers,many are just plain ignorant to the fact because they choose to be.

 

Do not know about other Companies But Navajo is capable in doing this and they will smile as they do it. I am a Former driver of Navajo ran my rear end off and nothing to show for it but a mark on my credit record. Navajo will even pretend to play Doctor and ask a driver to stop taking meds or even take meds that makes you sleepy and drive. They tried to get me to drive that way.

 

Post your comments in the review area. There is one still on there from Saturday. They are not bright enough to check them all.

 

I was thinking "There's a hole in my bucket" -- but yours works too!

Except she quit. She pulled over, refused to complete her task, and basically demanded the company send her a town car stocked with cavier because heaven forbid she ride the grey dog like a commoner!

Navajo...forcing people to buy #### they can't afford since 1980
