Well folks. Not sure where to begin, but its been an interesting two months. Had many good runs and a long cruise in the Caribbean. The cruise required us to turn in our truck. We hated to lose it, but we had planned on over two weeks off. We will get aanother vehicle tomorrow. Whoever got ours gets a good ride.
We had an issue our last day with some un-named employee at a customer's plant. This guy accused my son of having and threatening him with an illegal weapon! The police were called and searched us and our truck, finding no weapon and no basis for the guy's complaint. Unfortunately, Safety was called and my son was immediately suspended. The upshot was that we missed about an extra week's pay and had a lot of stress while waiting for them to get off their a-- and re-instate him. No one at Safety had the b---- to do it, even though we furnished them with a copy of the police report showing no basis for the complaint. I will point out that safety probably acted properly in the beginning. They just were s l o w re-instating him.
It was a nice run, and we hate the thought of probably being prohibited from that one customer over an invalid complaint.
That said, we're glad to get back on the road again and hope to meet most of ya'll at some point. -
Welcome back. Glad you had the cruise to unwind
