    Rent a car and go home.
    Rent a car and take a nice little vacation. Take a greyhound bus ride home.
    Apply for another driver job and your new employer will provide you with transportation. Get a job at the TA. Get a job where your at there In Kentucky.

    Sounds the the making of a great Bob Dylan song ....

    I was a 50 year old female trainee in a truck with a similarly adult male trainer. No drama. No stress. That company did actually have guys go thru extra hoops if they had women trainees. Plus a check call daily from an office chick while you're stopped so the trainee can go out of earshot of trainer and confirm everything was cool.
    Not all boys and girls get stuck in juvenile nonsense.

    I didn’t say they were but there’s just too much liability for my liking.
    How many times do we see stories of team drivers fighting or etc.
    I have nothing but bad luck and live my life by a saying that’s been in my family for a bit.

    If I were a trainer, there is no amount of money that would get me to take on all the risk of a female trainee.
    I know that most are just there to learn but you get that one that wants to make false allegations and your life becomes a living hell.
    The risk reward equation does not pencil out
