BennysPennys and Wasted Thyme Thank this. -
Contracts are made to be broken. If you have signed a contract for training and service for a stated length of time and you leave early, violating the contractual agreement you've signed,that is between you and the company that you have left. I'd venture to guess the company would not sign a reciprocal contract on your behalf with terms favorable to you.
They can only seek repayment of the costs stated in said contract through the appropriate legal channels in whichever state they are out of which may include garnishment of wages.
It has no legal rights to prohibit anyone from from hiring you unless somewhere in that contract you had signed gives them that no compete right..
And if so that is on them for not reading or having a legal representative go over the fine print.
Either way doesn't bode well for that company or others that have a no compete clause.
It's not like you have gleaned all of the company's secrets from them and could put them at a disadvantage in the competitive field of driver hiring and retention...lol
We do that here free! -

But you're right. Currently. They are great and do a good job of training and preparing new Drivers. I'm still planning on going back to work there after my cancer. Assuming I can. Won't know that until next month and my scan.
They don't pay terrific. But decent and treat you well. -

A Stevens recruiter visited the school I used to get my CDL. He boasted about the shiny new KWs (this was 10 years ago) and how they would run 65 mph. He gave the rest of his pitch and asked for any questions.
As your God as my witness, one of my esteemed colleagues raised his hand and asked (and he was dead serious):
“Can you get a slower truck if you want? I don’t think I’d feel comfortable going 65.”
Never one to miss an opportunity, I quickly quipped before recruiter dude could get a word out:
“Got any applications on your person?” -
Boondock, Hammer166, bzinger and 1 other person Thank this.
