1. Attention employers: We now require a valid DOT# for anyone wishing to post a driving position. If your job offer doesn't contain a DOT number, it will not get past moderation and will not appear in the forum. The other requirements in the sticky at the top of this section are still required as well. Thank you for understanding.

Someone please give me a chance!!

    They are not supposed to say anything to keep you from getting another job. Just tell your new employer that you don't work there anymore. Leave all the mumbo jumbo junk off your application. Just put I don't work there anymore. Reason: .29 cents a mile.

    It'd be real nice if that were so, but bottom feeder companies like to discredit any driver who leaves them or pisses on their Wheaties AND will elaborate, add, exaggerate, even lie to your new prospective employer and there seems to be not much that can be done about it either.

    Oh yes, the ole ," you can only tell prospective employers whether you will rehire or not", doesn't really happen in the REAL world, most will do as stated above.What can be done about it?,, NOTHING.

    I'm always for giving people a chance, plus the fact that I seem to always be looking for a driver seems to help. Anyways, shoot me a PM if you are interested. I am just getting ready to post in another thread that I am looking for a driver again. I have a small company with 3 trucks pulling reefers. I am located in NW Oklahoma and do alot of Midwest/Northwest but some of that depends on the driver.
