I STARTED WITH MARTEN DECEMBER 12TH OF 2012. BELIVE ME i REALLY TRIED TO WORK WITH THE OFFICE PERSONAL AT DESOTO TERMINAL FOR THE FIRST FEW WEEKS THING LOOKED PETTY GOOD. UNTIL I BECOME ELIGABLE FOR BENEFITS AND START TO USE THEM. IF YOU DO NOT SIGN UP FOR EVERYTHING MARTEN SO CALL HAS TO OFFER. YOU WILL BE TAGGED.BE CAREFUL THE MEDICAL INSURANCE WANT BENEFIT YOU UNTIL AFTER YOU PAY THE 700.00 DEDUCTIBLE IN FULL. THE DENTAL ,OTHER THAN JUST TEETH PULLING IS NO GOOD. TILL AFTER ONE YEAR. BELIEVE ME YOU PROBABLY WANT BE THERE LONG ENOUGH TO USE IT THROUGH.. YOU WOULD BE BETTER OFF GETTING YOUR BENEFITS. AN OUTSIDE CARRIER LIKE BLUE CROSS ETC. GO ONLINE LOOK FOR NATION WIDE COVERAGE, YOU WILL NEVER LOSE YOUR BENEFITS. AND ON TOP OF THAT, COMPLETED ALL WAITING PERIODS. BELIVE ME THE DISCOUNT YOU THINK YOUR GETTING, GIVE MARTEN ALL CONTROL. AND WHEN YOUR FIRED YOU WILL FIND OUT THATS THE FIRST THING YOU LOSE.
I LOST MY JOB BECAUSE OF THE SPEEDING RULE. I KNOW YOU PROBABLY SAY. YOU SHOULDNT HAVE BEEN SPEEDING.. I PROMISE YOU I WAS NOT, THEIR WAS A LINE OF TRIFFIC ON I-19. FROM NOGALS, AZ. HEADING TO PHOENIX, AZ. AT A CHECK STATION THE GOOD THING IS MY FIANCE RIDES WITH ME. WE APPROCH THE CHECK STAION, THE MPH WAS 70 THEN DROPPED TO 35. I WAS BEHIND TWO TO THREE OTHER TRUCK AND CARS IN BOTH LINES. WHEN I SAW THE OFFICER.. MY WIFE AND I BOTH POINT AT THE SAME TIME. BUT DIDNT THINK ANYTHING OF IT AT THE TIME. I SAY A FEW MINUTES LATER I SAW THE OFFICIER PULLING OUT . STILL DIDNT THINK ANYTHING. I PROCEEDED THROUGH THE CHECK STATION, AND TO MY SURPRISE HE PULLED ME OVER. WHEN HE CAN TO MY WIFE SIDE OF THE TRUCK, I ASK"WHAT HAD DONE OFFICER. " HE SAID HE WAS DOING AN LEVEL 3 INSPECTION, AND HAD PULLED ME OVER FOR SPEEDING. I SAID WHAT! MAN I SAW YOU FROM A FAR SIR, DIDNT YOU SEE MY WIFE AND I POINTING YOU OUT. THE NEXT THING THAT THIS OFFICER SAID BLEW MY WIFE AND I HEAD OFF. HE SAID I WAS DOING 46 IN A 25, MAN I LOST IT. ESPECIALLY WHEN HE SAID HE WAS GIVING ME A WARNING. I ASKED THE OFFICER. HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT, WHEN THERE WAS A 35 MPH BEFORE THE 25? I ALSO ASKED HIM TO SHOW ME THE CLOCK,VIDEO SHOWING ME DOING THIS SPEED. HIS REPLY WAS JUST A GENTLE TAP ON THE RADAR,AN A SMILE. BUT DID NOT ONCE SHOW THE CLOCK OR VIDEO. WITH THIS POLICY GIVE MARTEN POWER TO GET RID OF ANYONE AT ANYTIME. IF YOU FEEL THAT BIG COMPANIES DO NOT HAVE SOME LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THERE POCKET. I GUESS YOU BELIVE THE MOB WAS INNOCENT TOO.
YOU HAVE 15DAYS TO TURN INSPECTION REPORT. I WAS DUE BACK IN THE DESOTO TERNIMAL BY THE 30TH. I WAS SCHEDULE TO HAVE EYE SURGERY ON THE 4TH AND PRE OPS ON THE 30TH. SO I HAD PLETTY OF TIME BEFORE THE 15DAY CUT OFF. I WAS GOING FROM PHEONIX TO CHICARGO A VERY GO RUN. SINCE I HAD ONLY BEEN MAKING 150- 300 DOLLARS A WEEK. MY FLEET MANAGER AND OP MANAGER TREATED LIKE I WAS OUT OF LINE ABOUT GETTING UPSET. I WASNT DISREPECTFUL JUST FIRM. I AM HERE TO MAKE MONEY NOT FRIENDS. ALL OF MY TRUE FRIENDS SERVED THIS COUNTRY, THOSE ARE THE ONLY FRIENDS I NEED AND TRUST.THE ROUTE I TOOK FROM PHEONIX WAS I-19,I-40,44,70,57,294. THIS ROUTE BROUGHT THROUGH AMERILLO AND OKC , IF THERE PLANS WAS TO FIRE ME. WHY ALLOW ME TO DELIVER IN CHICARGO. GOING PAST MY HOME TERNIMAL WHERE MY PICK UP TRUCK IS PARKED. I GUESS ITS MAKES MORE SINCE FOR THE DRIVER TO DELIVER THE LOAD, AND CHARGE THE DRIVER FOR GETTING BACK HOME. NOW ASK YOURSELF HOW SICK IS THAT? ONCE GETTING TO CHICARGO WITH VERY FEW HOURS LEFT. MY FLEET MANGER SOLOMAN JOES TOOK MY CHICARGO LOAD OFF AND ADDED A INDIANAPLOIS LOAD ON. I NEVER ACKNOWLEGE THIS LOAD BECAUSE FOR ONE I WAS HAS HAVING TRUCK PROBLEMS AND NEEDED TO GET TO THE SHOP. HE INSISTED I TAKE THE LOAD TO THE RECEIVER I TOLD HIM I COULD NOT MAKE IT THE TRUCK P/S WAS GOING OUT , AND I WAS 28 MILES FROM TERMNAL. IN INDIANAPOLIS, I THEN CONTACT HR TO REPORT THE PROMBLEM I WAS WITH SOLOMAN JOES. I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO TAKE THE TRUCK TO THE YARD FOR REPAIRS. THAT NOTHING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, I WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING ABOUT THE EQUIPMENT.
WHEN I GOT TO THE YARD, I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE SHOP TOLD THE MECHANIC. WHAT PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING WITH THE TRUCK. WAS INSTRUCKED TO GO AND DROP TRAILER AND TO BRING THE TRUCK UP TO SHOP . THIS IS WHAT I WAS DOING WHEN TO MY SURPRISE ANOTHER MECHANIC APPROACH MY TRUCK, WITH STEERING LOCKS IN HAND. I ASKED WHAT THE PROBLEM? HES REPLY WAS " I HAVE TO LOCK THIS TRUCK DOWN". HE ASKED ME HAD I SPOKEN WITH THE SHOP FORMAN. I REALLY DIDNT KNOW WHO WAS THE SHOP FORMAN. I KIND OF FIGURED OUT AT THAT TIME THAT I WAS FIRED. AT FIRST I WAS CONFUSE, AND ALITTLE LOST. I IMEDIATLY STARTED TO THINK ABOUT MY SOON TO BE WIFE. SEE SHE HAS LUPUS WHICH IS ATTACHING HER JOINTS.BUT LET ME SAY GOD IS SO VERY GOOD. THE ONLY THING IS THAT I DIDNT HAVE A CREDIT CARD TO PURCHASE A RENTAL. SO AFTER THE RUNING 2100 MILES ALL I RECEIVED 178.00. SEE MARTEN TOOK TWO BUS TICKETS, 35.00 CAB,85 AND NOWHERE FOR MY WIFE AND TO SLEEP FOR THE NIGHT. THESE TICKETS WAS WAITING FOR ME TO ARRIVE.WE WERE BOOKED OUT ON BUS THAT LEFT SATURDAY NIGHT. BUT DIDNT LEAVE TILL SUNDAY. DUE TO HAVING TO MAKE ARRANGMENTS TO SHIP MY THING BACK HOME UPS. THIS WAS FRIDAY EVENING WITH THE DAYTONA 500 IN TOWN. MY WIFE AND I SLEEPED ON THE STREETS FOR TWO DAYS WAITING FOR THE BUS RIDE HOME. EVETHING WAS BOOKED SOLID FOR THE RACE ON SUNDAY. WHAT A WAY TO TREAT A HONORABLE DISCHARGE VETRAN, IS THE TOUGHT THAT CROSSED MY MIND . I AM SO PROUD OF MY WIFE SHE DID NOT COMPLIAN,NOT ONCE . I RELIED TOTALLY ON MY MILTARY SKILLS. THIS I PROMISE YOU, I USED THE SHEETS AND BLANKETS TO MAKE SHELTER. I MADE WHAT YOU CALL A LEENTO THIS IS LIKE A TENT ,BUT LOW TO GROUND SO YOU CAN GO UNNOTICE.
AFTER THE TWO DAYS PAST.WE FINALLY BOARED THE BUS, AFTERTAKING CLEANING UP AT ALOCAL GAS STATIONS, AND LOWES HARDWARE. WE GOT BOXES FROM COSTCO AND A GROCERY STORE DOWN THE STREET. TO PACK UP OUR THINGS. I THEN WENT TO THE DAYS INN AND ASKED COULD I USE THERE ADDRRSS TO SHIP MY THING TO MESQUITE,TX. THESE PEOPLE SAW THAT I WAS A VETRAN, AND ALLOW ME TO SHIPP MY UPS FROM THERE MOTEL. MY THINGS WOULDNT BE PICKED UP TUES AFTER THE HOLIDAY.APPARTYELY THEY SAW THE PAIN MY SOON TO BE WIFE WAS IN, AND THEY WOULD MAKE SURE THAT THING REACHED US IN MESQUITE, TX. FINALLY IT WAS TIME TO GET TO THE BUS STATION FOR AN 18HR TRIP. OVER THE SAME PATH WE WE ONCE TRAVEL AS PART OF THE MARTEN FAMILY. NOW, WE FELT ABANDON AND ALONESEE WITH LUPUS ABOUT EVERY 2HRS YOU HAVE TO RUB THE KNEES DOWN IF NOT PAIN CAN BE OVER WELHEMING. THE BUS RIDE TOOK ITS TOLL ON HER, BUT SHE HUNG IN THERE. iI WOULD LIKE FOR ANYONE WHO READ THIS, TO PLEASE PRAY FOR MY WIFE. WE WERE AT THE BUS TREMAL IN INDIANAPLOIS SHE RECIVED A PHONE CALL FROM HER MOTHER. HER NEPHEW WAS KILLED IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN ST CHARLES PARISH SUNDAY MORNING 5/26/13 JOSHUA JONES. THANK YOU!
I DIDNT KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT MY PICK TRUCK STILL PARKED IN THE DESOTO YARD.THE ONE THING I LEARNED FROM ALL THIS IS I AM A SOLIDIER, AND YOU WILL NEVER FORGET HOW TO SURVIVE. THANK YOU AND MY GOD BLESS YOU.
