    Also you ##### about over communicating but it is proven in business that over communicating with your colleagues keeps the order flowing smoother and productivity is higher. There’s a book regarding being a 5 star leader which will also detail the importance of over communicating.

    Sadly you allowed the disagreement to get personal then made poor choices then more poor choices making a post on a site they pay to advertise on with pretty font colors, sizes.

    If I were you I’d ask for my job back and try and see how you can get them to not put an abandonment on your dac

    As far as I'm aware, KB trucks dont have bunk heaters and will not idle for more than 5 minutes. Could be wrong, but if I'm correct then having a non-functioning apu is a big fricking deal. Suck it up for a night? Sure, no problem. Second night get me a hotel, get it fixed, or I will start my exit process.

    This part was a bad decision. Its also why you put in notice when you are already at home.

    KB is a shady company... When a company call to < 24 hours after you put your application in and want you the next day in orientation...that should send red flags up big time...

    Tell you what I'd be complaining about. I'd be complaining about putting up with that level of micromanagement and BS, and still having to basically beg for my paycheck, only to have it only be $1100 a week.

    I can put up with a fair level of garbage if the money is right. But $1100 a week ain't even close.
