Ok, this is my second time writing this so I am going to shorten it more. Worked for Boyd for 11 months and one week. Now it is time for my physical renewal. I didn't pass this time. MY fault. Guys...Take care of yourselves somehow. Anyways, I didn't pass the blood pressure 153/100, now I have a cpap and it is 126/73. So now I am thinking, good back on the road. I start filling out different apps just to see if the grass really isn't greener on the other side of the fence, and left and right I am being shot down. So I call Boyd and they had put on my DAC that I was discharged.
My discussion with Jack from safety was more like just go get help from your doctor, nothing about you need to turn in your keys.
I was really worried about my health at this point so I say, I think I am just going to get off the road for a while and take care of my health. He said, come on back when you get it straightened out. I said, sure. I didn't know they put it as a discharge on my DAC.
My question now is: why do I have to be turned down for getting my health back on track? Why didn't they just put quit on the DAC, that's what I thought I was doing.
Is it supposed to be classified as a DISCHARGE when you fail the physical?
I thought they were giving me time to get it corrected, and when I turned them down they turn it into a negative on my DAC. Is it your FM that puts this on your DAC?
I liked working there. I had recieved there 50,000 safe miles reward and was working on my next fifty thousand. I like flatbed and hope to return. I am not writing this to discourage anyone from driving for Boyd, just watch your own back and be proactive. I might have had this DAC issue resloved by now. Be safe.

Lol, Boyd set me up for a rehire. Now I just have to find a good FM. Mine switched departments. See you on the road.

That was why the bad DAC, to keep you from going somewhere else.

Those that choose to live by the DAC,
are often killed by the DAC !!!!!
