CFI is not as good a company as they think they are.

I dont know how new u r to this industry. But here's some advice on when u get/fired from a company.

1, have them send it threw the messaging system, and stop talking to them over the phone, that u are fired.

2, Tell them that since I'm no longer an employee of the company, this is where I'm parking the truck and trailer, that I'm no longer legally able to drive the truck and trailer.

3, take pictures of the messages, so if they put vehicle abandonment on ur dac, u can sue them for liable, pain and suffering of u/ passenger/ pet due to idle policy, and have it removed from ur dac. O dont forget to take pictures of the truck and trailer before u leave, just in case they try and get u for damage.

1 or 2 things will happen. They will with draw the firing, or it will stand.

This is why u need a cushion to cover the cost of getting everything home, including urself and companion/s, from where ever u are in the country.

 

This doesnt sound like a company problem more like the problem was the driver......no dogs in the buildings or in the shop??? Ummm the better question is why would an animal be allowed in any building or workplace unless it is a service animal? U assigned a dirty truck because thats what companies do , its no different than getting a dirty apartment or anything else thats been used before you.. Itspart of the game... If u really were falsly accused of running red lights when u say u werent, but there opinion is based upon what they see on the camera, well if u think its a false accusation then how come they most likely have video saying otherwise? Trucking is a #### game sometimes esspecially if ur new but if ur just starting out u need to suck it up and get some experience so u can get with a better company who doesnt micromanage, but alot of this stuff u are complaining about is just common sense

 

Some states, such as Louisiana, you have to be fully through the light before it turns red, or else you ran it. Cars get busted with this, imagine sticking 53' to the end of that. Likely what they were saying there.

 

Awesome, glad ya found something better, be safe out ther

 

Shake the dust off the feet and go, be happy.

Arf will be settled in soon enough, don't stress the bad outfits.

Part of the situation like dirty trucks, well you house clean them. Its your truck now. Truckers are slobs unfortunately. And sometimes usually infectiously dangerous. You have to go over everything in a truck issued to you so that you can be sure it's disinfected, clean orderly and able to support your pet.

Certified Freaking Idiots will just have to muddle along with less motivated drivers than yourself.

 

Not that I'm defending CFI, but why do so many drivers expect trucking companies and the industry to cater to your pet?

The deposit is fair IMO, I would rather drive a truck that's been smoked in for years than one that's had a dog in it. Some dogs have dander and B.O. that doesn't go away, and the only way to get rid of it is to reupholster the whole truck or find a driver who either has a dog or doesn't care about the smell.

If you find a company that is truly pet-friendly, good job. It's bad enough out here for a human, why make a dog suffer?
