    If you were pulling a reefer, he could suddenly disappear right after you picked up a load of raw beef...

    if i had an ####### co driver start going through my stuff, id leave him at the first truck stop that he had to take a piss at, simple as that.
    or i'd stab him and leave him in a ditch and say he ran of with a cute w.hore

    Finally made it home, been home since Sunday morning, off the road since Friday technically. long 20 hour bus ride.......

    I have one co-driver that Im currently keeping contact with and supposedly we are on the list for a truck, but they don't have one for us currently. I have no clue what this means. I also feel lucky that I had this guy's number and that he is staying in contact with me, because for whatever reason, dispatcher is telling me there is no available co's in my area and not giving me any numbers.

    Whoever made the post about them "wernering," me, that's pretty much how I feel. Guess Im going to chill out here and see what develops with this Co-driver, and if it falls through I will start pressing for numbers and see whats going on with the situation.


    Anyone reading this from CRST. Save yourself big trouble and DO NOT GET ON A TRUCK with emp****, if he still even has a job :)

    Take care everyone!!!!!

    so you are a pacifist.. his impression of you is that you are a whimp, he's probibly bigger than you. what happens when you loose you're temper i garontee will be worse than if you respond while in controll.. my advice for you is 2 fold... 1 stand up to him.. that doesnt mean fighting and getting violent.. it means getting in his face, having a firm tone of voice, using strong facial expressions and body language, and using strong words to define what you will not tolerate, i garontee he wont be expecting it.. and if done properly he should back off.. and 2nd message you're sispatcher at every stop with what this guy is doing and how he is threatning you.. make it abundantly clear to them in writing that he is a threat to you're physical safty.. if they ignore it it is grounds for a lawsuit.. and if you bug them enough at worst they will fire you but most likely there gona get you on a different truck...

    and lastly.. if you're co driver touches you in any way stop the truck and call the cops.. have him arested for assult...

    If you bothered reading the thread from the beginning you would see that he was not bigger than the poster.

    Also that it is now a "done deal." He is off the truck, and back home.
