I do have sympathy for what happened to you, but don't appreciate you lumping all USA drivers in with these two nit wits. I have seen the same sort of stupid things happen at Swift, Werner, US Express, Schnieder, Knight, Butler, etc..., Using your logic all companies are in the CAN.
Safety Comes in Cans...or does it?

That explains why nobody there answers the phone at night. They are too busy googleing everybodys location. Actually the banned areas are programmed into the qc. When you are in the banned area it notifies them and they in turn notify you to move it.
Often someone else will see you parked where you should not be and drop a dime on you. -
No Sir that was not me, It was a fellow driver who makes money off of what he does, He was as innocent as a new born baby but yet have to deal with the headache of dealing with getting his truck fixed because someone went out and got hammered and decided to return to the TS where they left the trailer. If these guys were in a forbidden location why wasn't it told to them to move it? Thanks.Sleepy68 Thanks this.

Well an owner op backed into me one night at a truck stop 3 times and was coming in for number 4 when I got him stopped. Destroyed my hood. Put me oos for three days. It was 2am and I was in a parking spot. He hut the left side of my hood claiming he was backing into the hole on my right. It was a straight line back in a huge open area in front of the spaces. Looked like he was trying to fit between me and the guy on my left.
So should I lump all owner ops in the dumb ### catagory now? I've kept up with the mentioned thread and its ridicules how a few of you lump all usa in with those two idiots. Shows how small.minded and spiteful you are.Gold_Miner Thanks this. -
I seriously doubt they use Google to watch places like that, it doesn't refresh more than a few times a YEAR.
(that might explain why 5 drivers got fired in the same truck though,,,, safety thinks they're ALL going to the same gin-joint!

True, but they can see the trucks real time position and where its parked. I commonly parked at the bar in the photo while waiting to load/unload at a paper mill in Prewitt, NM and one day I received a call from our safety department about it. I just park down the road from the bar along side the railroad tracks now.

Sometimes it happens the old fashioned way. You could have a rat on the road that sees you there and calls safety. Safety then gets on thee QC screen and says the QC has you parked in a place that you aren't supposed to park.

While I worked at TMC, there were those kind of rats crawling everywhere lol. We called them the Safety Police (there were worse names out there), some even had special decals on the side of their truck. You get those kind of nosy people that have nothing better to do at any company you work for though, its kind of sad that you can't trust anybody out there that will keep their mouth shut about anything.
-
I call them boy scouts. The overly dedicated type that thinks ratting out the next guy makes them a good worker. They probably have some type of mental deficiency. The company usually can't even stand them and wish they would just keep their mouths shut.

Are they the same ones that the dispatchers have to babysit? lol...
