J.R. Schuegel -- One Terrible Trucking Company

ok.....ummmmmmm, I'm missing something here. Sooooo, you worked for them for a week (or just a bit more) 2 years ago and quit them. Then 2 years later they call you and beg you to come back as if you were the only guy in the state with a CDL?? Man, there's a pretty big piece missing out of the middle of this story.

 

Well, if that's what happened, that's what happened.
I'm glad you got your old job back.
Lesson learned:
If a company is willing to make you bail out on your current company without proper notice, then they will do the same to you.

 

If its too good to be true then it usually is... And why would they call someone who quit 2 yrs ago for a dedicated 3500 mile 4 days a week run when they have some 600 drivers already? I bet you're thanking your lucky stars your current company took you back. No way in hell would I let you back after quitting with NO notice.

 

so what you are saying is that there is an opening...

 

One week and you quit the first time?

 

Smart phones do have a setting - alarm only/no calls. Remember, you run your log book. If a DM had called me, I would have said send it over the QC and take a picture of it. Then send it to the safety dept the next day. If they refuse, you refuse, but then again, if you are on your DOT break you do not move. Any accidents and they will be your fault no matter what...

 

I'm just wondering why you'd think that someone in management would remember they had trucks late for loads two years ago?

 

Hmm 3500 miles in four days is 879 miles per day. Drive for 11 hours equals 79.5 mph.

Didn't sound to good to be true did it?
