Truck Abandonment

It probably won't kill your career but, you'll have issues finding another job. And those that are willing to hire you will probably not be the best..

 

Where is your company out of? I would quit return the truck and go. Family comes first. If they don't understand you need a new company

 

depends on how close you are/were to the deceased.

parent? sibling?, to hell with the company, fly home.

cousin? aunt? uncle?.....get the load and get home. you might miss the funeral, but you will still be there, albeit later, to show your respect to the family. if anyone (in your family) thinks about bashing you for being late? well....i'd have to PM you on what i'd tell them..

parents and siblings take top priority to me, over relatives.



this is one thing i had to deal with myself. i have had aunts, uncles, cousins die, i did not rush home.

luckily for me, my sibling and parents did not pass away while i was far from home.

tough call.

ask 47 of us what to do...??

get......... 257,477,548, 990, 238 opinions.

 

Well....tough one here man....that's a lot of driving to be doing while grieving

 

Yes these fellas above are right. I just addressed the abandonment issue, the driver side of me says leave that truck and fly home. Thats quite a ride while grieving like @bryan21384 says

 

Id present this scenario to your employer....

 

How about you tell your employer you will leave truck at airport and will be back to grab it once you finish with family issues?

 

Just secure it and fly home

Let the company know you'll return as soon as you can. If they put another driver on it that's on them..as always document/ cover yo arse.
