    Three month cards are essentially a warning to you to fix whatever the problem is now. Right away within three months whatever it takes. Because you might never get another.

    It is easier to make your own thread and stand tall in it because you managed to resurrect a 10 year old thread here roughly. It might confuse people.

    10.4 and your card gets pulled. You’ll be shut down at least 90 days - that’s when they can do another A1C test.

    We are actually getting a driver back on Monday that was out for the same thing. He was able to collect unemployment during the time his med card was pulled. He could’ve done non DOT , non safety sensitive work as well, but we didn’t have anything available for him
