What fuse to pull?

Why would you risk him damaging your equipment? Fire him, walk him off the property and pay his two weeks severance. As for the truck moving, I’d stash an air tag on it somewhere. Set it to alert as soon as moved.

 

I’m sure there’s a fuse for the ignition or starter some where just pull the fuse cover and read the list of what fuse does what and start pulling fuses until the truck doesn’t start . I agree with everything you said except the two weeks severance depending on how long the employee has worked for him and the reason the OP wants to fire his driver he may have to pay a lot more then just 2 week’s severance could be months of pay if the driver gets a employment lawyer. If i was the OP contact a good employment lawyer to make sure he doesn’t get screwed


i would just fire the driver once he’s back at the yard/terminal and if you’re afraid he might do something have the police there . you should have some kind of gps tracking on all of your equipment to begin with and i’m sure a shop could add a hidden kill switch somewhere that nobody but you would know of and allow the truck not to be started

 

just pull a wire from the alternator and the battery if you don't want it moving.. doubt the guy is going to even try to figure out why it won't start

 

I know when we terminate someone here in Manitoba, they are walked off the premises and not allowed to come onto company properties to prevent vandalism. Each province is different but you only have to give an employer two weeks notice and vice versa, so pay them out rather than letting them work the last two weeks. They can take you to the labour board, but your lawyers will advise you on the best course of action in your province.

 

The Master Fuse in the Box (the big big one) or like you did, the starter relay.

 

It sounds like you have a hard time communicating, and would rather just sabotage his means of employment (Why? Are you hoping he'll quit? Newsflash; he won't....) rather than tell him TO HIS FACE (you know, like an adult would..) that he's fired. Really, stop being obtuse. Just fire him. Get it over with and move on.

I'd love to see HIS take on how working for you was......

 

This was my thought exactly. He’s hoping the employee will quit so he doesn’t have to pay severance.
