    Nice to see people are helping this poor guy out.

    I think the trainer should loose his job over this! Pretty obvious you should treat people that way!

    Wow. This makes me feel like I struck gold and am very, very lucky to be getting my start where I am.

    Good luck Bluebonn, hopefully your next "mentor" is worthy of the title.

    Kudos to those willing to lend a helping hand. A rare thing in today's society.

    The first mentor my friend was with got suspended from mentoring over a speeding ticket. They routed them back home and he was off his truck waiting for a new mentor. My guess is they will really not look kindly on this.

    I'm hoping other companies have the same policy/dept... even if they aren't named the same.
     
    Texas-Nana Thanks this.

    they most likely do. it costs "up to" $5,000 to recruit ONE new driver....that's a lot of money they lose if a student up and quits. talking to the company officials, is far better than just walking off a job...
     
    Texas-Nana Thanks this.

    The scene from Borat, where he's squatting in the bushes taking a dump, comes to mind.
