Learn from your mistake, allow more room for clearance in the future, and get yourself away from that company as soon as you can find another job, but don't quit until you have somewhere to go. -
me and my driver really don't like each other at this point. I told him I want to get the #### off the truck. We started arguing, he thinks I'm being hostile and threatening him. So he decides to get pull over on an off ramp and start dialing a number. To my surprise he starts calling 911. He says "hi ma'am this off duty army private "xxxxxx" I'm calling because my co driver is becoming very hostile and wants to get off my truck.I couldn't believe it but he actually called the cops on me. He tells me my ### is going to jail, and to just wait until the state trooper shows up. He also starts to voice record me. Yes he even begins recording me on his recorder? Without my permissionn too.
Well state trooper shows ups. I'm obviously not hostile. State trooper says "look there's nothing I can really do, you and your company need to figure this out." So much for my ### going to jail. I agree to get back on the truck, but I'm definitely getting off as soon as I can. The next day rolls on by and now we're in california. Come morning time I send a message via qualcomm to the dispatcher saying I need to get off this truck asap. Covenant agrees and they route the codriver2 to drop me off at the pilot near my home. I don't really know what's going to happen now. I dont know if this whole incident made me lose my job. All I know is my co driver2 is going to make me look as bad as possible to the company.
I'm thankful that covenant got me off the truck as soon as possible. I've read horror stories on this site about team driving. But I didn't think they were real. Now I realize team driving is really complicated and you never who your getting on the truck with. I just got home today and glad I'm off his truck.Last edited: Jun 8, 2014

As I've read this entire thread I can't help but think what the issue is over a scratched mirror. What with this co driver/trainer do if you did what that USA driver did. Dude get out of that truck the guy is psycho run fast and far from him.

Uh, without knowing what happened, we don't have an answer for you.
Raiderfanatic Thanks this. -
Thats kinda what I was going to go with. All smoke and mirrors until the truth is told.
LOL nmd I found your other thread.joseph1135 Thanks this. -
LOL, a scratch on a mirror! What happens when you hit a tree limb? Or snap a CB antenna? Better call the police and file a police report. "Hello incident response, I had an accident and broke a CB antenna. "
