Please Help!!!

Hey Scarecrow,

I called Schneider and they said they'd take me even with the suspension because I was in the military. I don't know if that's recruiter talk or what. Any other Schneider drivers out there have any info to help me?

 

Okay, but how do I get that in writing? Will they put it in writing?

 

I don't know what to do. I'd like to go with Schneider, but I'm scared that if I quit my job and then go and then they send me home, I'm going to be mad because the recruiter told me that it wouldn't be a problem. I'm going to call them several more times and see if that is the standard answer from the recruiters I talk to there. If I get the same answer each time then it should be solid. Right?

 

Thanks Aftershock and Scarecrow. I that's what I'm going to do. I will request it in writing. Not the offer of a job but that my situation is approved by them. if they can guarantee that, then I'll be good to go. Cause I don't want to quit my job and get out there to train and be sent home. I'll be PO'd big time. And knocking on some VP's door to get people fired!!! In the military ignorance was not an excuse because you get a chance to disclose everything and before you sign the papers everything must be made clear to you. (Worked as a recruiter for some years) In this industry it's difficult because you do not know the company's hiring policies and very little information is put out. And to me if a company or representative of the company, knowingly misleads someone and thereby causes them financial hardship that's grounds for a lawsuit to me. Especially if a person quits their job, to go to training and is told that their issues are not issues. That's plain wrong, at the least I'd be contacting the President of the Company, and anyone else who'll listen to get that recruiter fired and to make the company's lies publicly known. I'd contact their customers (if known) and let them know what they did to a US. Marine Corps vet, and see how they like that. Plus I'd get on the evening news, and try to make it national as well. It'd be easy with the job markets the way they are and the military personnel coming home from the war. I'd blast schneider or any other company from every aspect. By the time I'd be done with them I'd have either a job offer, or a public apology.

(I'm dreaming aren't I) But those are the lengths I'd go through if I were promised something and then quit my job, went out there and was lied to and sent home. I'd get a hotel, and set up a campaign to destroy that company. I'd find out who their customers are and blast them to their customers about how they treat military vets. I wouldn't lie, I'd just tell the truth.

I know...most of you guys will probably say it won't work. But I did the exact same thing with a fortune 500 company here in Louisville and they made big changes because of me.
