    The company you work for needs to be reported for what they’ve done to you. That’s just not right and then they want to hang out the dry because you want to get home. Just not right!

    at some point you’d just have to put your foot down and do something. I’d drive it home on my own dime and say okay, it’s in my driveway. Come get it.

    can’t really say you abandoned the truck or stole any money from them at that point.

    Well, he did say his reload down in Brownsville failed and would probably D/H home. Could be in the Canadian wilderness fighting off a Grizzley.

    I’d always heard getting a load *up* to AK was the easy part. Might have had to deadhead to Seattle to get it but they send a lot of stuff up that way out of there.
