Lmao imagine someone telling you they’re a great driver, and in the next breathe admit they can’t stop making the most basic of mistakes and the company has to pay for their goof ups!
“I need the most money there is in trucking! I’m the best! I locked my self out of the truck again!”
Should a driver pay for leaving their keys inside the truck?

We have drivers who think nothing of adding fluids, air, changing a headlight bulb or wiper but we also have a few that won't touch a unit unless it's turnkey.
Those few pop the hood and look at it in a Chevy Chase Grand Canyon manner, not having a clue.
Jeez..we have one that for years didn't realize we had a 300 gallon bulk window wash fluid tank to fill the trucks reservoir so he just wrote it up.."needs washer fluid"
Lucky for us we only have one of these rubes.
BTW not only do I carry a spare key I have a backup to the spare.FlaSwampRat, buddyd157, Cattleman84 and 2 others Thank this. -

We always use cut-down frame rails for bumpers but this was a new truck and we hadn't made the switch yet.
The driver was embarrassed.
He offered to pay for a new bumper. I told him to just dig through the scrap pile and find a good piece of frame rail, help the mechanics cut it down, put it on the truck, and be ready to go in the morning.
He didn't clock in for the time he spent on the new bumper.
Was that fair enough?FlaSwampRat, buddyd157, Cattleman84 and 2 others Thank this. -
