    Left him stranded at a bus stop? JCT tends to supply bus tickets to get even people they fired home. And short of incompetence or verbal/physical threats to staff or customers a professional would find it difficult to get fired here. So there is obviously much more to this story.

    I would be there now if they had taken me. But they were looking for recent experience I didn't have when I talked to them in person. But I did get the tee shirt (really!) and I still wave at all the JCT trucks I see. Or park near!

    PS. I think Sharpp has retired and taken all this referral money he's getting to the beach in Belize where he can listen to the Rush of the waves to his heart's content.

    I would be there now too if they had taken me. But they were looking for recent experience I didn't have when I talked to them on the phone! No I didn't get a T-Shirt, I wish I had! I wonder if someone in here could convince them to send me one? and I still wave at all the JCT trucks I see. Or park near! yep I do that too, There was going west on 10 Today while I was on the surface street I waved I'm pretty sure he didn't see me!

    You should know that Facebook is not a reliable source for a thing such as this, What exactly happened? The driver could have flipped out and that caused him to go off the deep end! We will never know.
    I do know this reading what has just happened in orientation with Prewitt and the Lady who lost a family member in a vehicle accident and them wanting to get her home as soon as possible, I think JCT Knows what needs to be done and gets it done right away.
    And with all of the success stories just here in this thread and this is a small lot of all of their drivers, They are doing most things right.
    Good Luck out there drivers.

    Oh if only! I'm working with a couple of guys on here helping them get situated. Thank you Treputt for the kind words. I'm very glad that you got a 2014 Cascadia. I know that you will do great here.

    I'm in Benson, AZ on the way to Anaheim for tomorrow. I'm off to dinner now, but I'll try and get you caught up later.
     
    Treputt Thanks this.

    I had NEVER given JCT, the company OR the trucks, as 2nd look until I began reading this thread. There is just something about the positive attitude, friendliness, camaraderie, etc that I began to enjoy reading about. Soon after beginning to read this thread (I started at the beginning of it, maybe a month ago), I began paying attention to the trucks, noticing how many I would see on the highways and truckstops, etc.

    I have been pulling dry vans virtually all of my career and I am now wondering, by reading this thread and the other JCT thread, if y'all are going to end up converting me to the dark side.

    Not concerned about getting hired due to my experience, I have plenty of that. I hate running to the West coast. In 20 + years, I have been out there 6 times and it does nothing for me. I just have to figure out if consistently running to a part of the country I HATE is ultimately worth it to me.

    Regardless of the outcome for me, I enjoy keeping up with this thread. Mighty fine group of drivers.

    I call BS on that one. They would have given him a bus ticket home even if they cancelled his lease. I've personally seen that done, not just stating what I think they would do.

    By the way, I'm having trouble receiving PM's due to my account being flagged. Check my profile if you have any personal questions or comments for some alternate ways to get in touch with me. Thanks.
