    Well, I'm getting the shaft AGAIN!

    Supposed to be home on Thursday after being out for 4 weeks cause they couldnt get me home last time! Got a load picking up in Carrollton GA tomorrow night, delivers in Orlando Friday morning!

    They could have easily found a load to get me home by my requested time but they have shown time and time again that covering their own loads is more important than getting a broker load to get a driver home on time!

    I am officially done! I was this close to deadheading home today but my anniversary date is March 15th and I'll be ###### if I'm gonna let them not pay me vacation pay!

    I will be using my vacation time to find a local job and then JBS can kiss my arse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Im waiting to start my orientation so im not wise in the waus of the trucking world. But even in school they warned me that you wont usually get home when you want. Seems to me thats kind of the nature of the beast. I understand tat it can be frustrating but i think most companies are like that. Happy anniversary, my birthday is the 15th. Stay safe out there.

    I understand. They shorted me 450.00 on the Texas Dedicated Debacle. I have 6 job offers right now just waiting on the one I really want to call me before I jump. It sucks they want you to p/u and del ontime they should get you home on time.

    you are very jaded coming out of school,take it from an old timer, I have worked for many companies and this is the only one that can't seem to get us home on time,they missed Christmas with 8 weeks notice, and I live in an easy area to get home to.You need to get a little time under your belt before you make a statement like that.

    That's was a smart thing to do Doc get that release.. Alot of drivers get pissed and leave their trucks in the truck stops and and get the abandonment
    on their dac. Sorry to have seen you go my brother (lodge 34)
     
    DocRox Thanks this.
