    I wholeheartedly agree.
    We have all been scewed over at on etime or another.
    I know I have. Like TripleSix says, just let it go.
    It might sting now, but over time, you will look back on it and realize it wasn't worth getting all twisted up over.

    I know 2 guys that did something similar.

    One guy was a local driver for CocaCola. He drove the truck to the hood and opened all the doors and left it. He cant get a job riding on the back of a garbage truck.

    Another guy drove a hotel courtesy van. He disappeared with the van and was caught a couple days later joyriding with his buddies in another state. Didnt even bother to take the magnetic signs off the van. Idiot! He got sent up river and now cant get a job sweeping floors in the movie theater.

    If you really want to get back at a guy, pork his wife, daughter or favorite neice. That wont show up on a DAC report.:biggrin_25523:

    Hey Photolurp -

    Just read about your story, and I'm so sorry to hear about all of the trouble you're having. Please keep us posted on whether you were able to resolve this. No one should be forced to break the law in the course of trying to make a living, but unfortunately it does happen. Best of luck with trying to find a reputable employer.

    I know this is a little off topic, but can anyone recommend good, cheap hotels in Jacksonville with truck parking? Right now it is a toss up between Travelodge and Rodeway Inn. I drive a day cab. $50.00 is my limit, but I like $35 better.

    I did just that. I released my boss from further service, and gave him his truck back. After hotels, food, and other expenses I took home $140 for 5 days of work this week.

    Any car haulers out there looking for a driver?

    Anyone want to sell their car hauler?
