    What are exactly are you getting at? I’m confused? Do you have any recommendations for the driver or are you just going to bash him through this experience. You my friend sound like a driver who lacks experience as well because an experienced driver would have recommend some options for this new driver like to his dispatch about getting a new truck or talk to his operations manager to get out of his current situation. That’s the problem with some the people in this industry. No one wants to help the new guys any more. They just want to bash the new guys coming in. I came in offering help to guy others chimed in suggesting to stay and tough it out so he doesn’t have to go through the re training process all over again. You added no value to situation. Your comment imo was pointless. Let’s help out these new drivers or just keep our negative comments to ourselves. But I’m sure you can’t do that so I’ll just sit here and wait for a negative reply back. Be safe driver

    Here’s the thing. Your azzzz can’t read, if I wanted a lecture I would have called up a teacher, or professor with a degree. You obviously miserable and wanna make someone feel bad about not having experience, but truthfully in these 5 months that I do have, I’ve ran into enough guys like you to know how to handle you, so here’s your cookie “ “ , I hope you don’t eat it all in one bite, and next time keep irrelevant info to yo damnnnnn self

    I can read. From your post it sounded like you wanted a pity party. You had a bad ten days in your harrowing 5 months on the road. Guess what, it doesn't matter who you work for, those ten days won't be the last. And for the record, you've never ran into anyone like me.

    I don't want you to feel bad, everyone starts somewhere. If you quit every time something doesn't go your way, eventually you run out people willing to hire you. Even with this era of the driver shortage.

    Dude how do I sound like I wanted a pity party? You are a #%^*%# idiot!!! I never asked anyone to feel sorry for me I simply asked for info on other companies, and yes ppl like you swear you know someone’s whole life based off a question, I never even said I was gonna quit, I just said this situation got me on the fence, and I refuse to stay somewhere I’m not getting treated right. how bout this just shut up and mind your business for now on, cause obviously you suck at giving advice. And you rather comment on someone’s status with irrelevant nonsense.

    @Tony850 - Kstrong86, does Fastenal still hire drivers with only a cdl permit? I've seen ads in the past that they do at some terminals.
