Arnold/US Xpress truck stolen=driver terminated

Wide Glide said: ↑

After 3 years of driving with Arnold/US Xpress my truck was stolen from the local truck stop while I was on home time. I live only 4 miles from this truck stop and i check the truck on a regular basis. When showing up to start my week my truck was not where I parked it. Long story short it was broken into and stolen. It was found 2 weeks later but the load (ladies shoes) was lost. The truck was locked up, I has both sets of keys here, the trailer had a big bolt type seal on it. I had nothing to do with the theft but I was terminated. Just letting you drivers know that this is the thanks you will get if you are the victim of theft. You might better sleep in the truck while on home time. They said that I didn't use proper securement proceedures. How does one fight this as other companies are saying they can't hire me due to this on my record? Someone else steals it but I'm the one out of a job. Thanks US Xpress.
