Ok, i bit of background:
i've been a commercial driver for roughly 14 yrs. Most of my gigs have been local, thus if i wanted to quit it was relatively easy; Since you are back at the terminal every night it was easy to hand in the resignation letter and/or talk to the manager.
On every OTR job i've had if i wanted to quit it was generally because i did not wish to run OTR anymore, not because of dissatisfaction with the company and/or proceedures AND in most every case the way that the companies that i drove for operated was that we would be back at the home terminal in a few days anyways. Thus, i generally had no problems with running a few extra loads before the time i would finally return to the home terminal.
However, my question now is, let's say you run for a 48 state OTR carrier AND you want to quit immediately due to either a) dissatisfaction with the company and/or b) dissastisfaction with company personel, i.e., dispatchers playing favorites etc. and/or c) other bull$$#%#$t.
How do you/would you handle it?
In addition, please consider these three separate scenarios:
a) for example assume you are in AZ and the main terminal is in Pa.
b)Assume that you are in Az and there are several other terminals sprinkled around the country.
c) Assume none of the above except that the main terminal is in pa.
