Roehl lies to vets

I don't know about the Frig division. I'm Midwest Regional Flat, Honors Program/Salary. They duped me on at least three checks and I've heard from other vets that they did the same to them (paid for a half day of work when a full day, 4 hours, was worked).
You may want to contact the Frig drivers as you ops manager and dsr will be different which could be as different as working for a whole different co. from me.

 

I've yet to round up those checks and match them with my log times on the log sheets. This will take a little time but I've kept everything because the the trucking industries overwhelming reputation for dishonesty. Once I've dug these up I will bring to my ops manager and see what they do.

 

That right there is big reason I don't exactly swoon over Roehl whenever another driver asks me about the company at a stop or the s or c. It is amazing how my DSR assignes blame to me for absolutely everything no matter how isnignificant or seemingly inconsiquential. A simple missed phone call or fax (when they don't get it it's allways something I did wrong and I get a lecture). I call them when I'm down to 1/4 tank of gas if I don't think I'm going to make my fuel stop. My DSR proceeds to lecture me on how I need to call him when I'm down 1/4 tank of gas!? IRRITATING! I'll get directions to a C that are completely bogus and I'll call about it. The responce is "well you need to call the c to get directions." Yah, well I already did that , how the hell do you suppose you got my "arrived at con." message fercrisake!
My DSR is relatively new so I'm sure he's being taught the ropes by my ops manager who's telling him to avoid any kind of blame or responcibility for anything no matter what. Here are a couple of reasons why this is bad and I don't just write off as "part of the trucking industry."
1. If these managers are going to klimb the ladder and make the bucks they should be able to demonstrate at least a shread of leadership (having the balls to accept responcibility is part of leadership but not in the corporate world I guess). Not doing so shows a real lack of proffessionalism, period.
2. It's pretty clear that this is not a team effort... at all. It's us againts them and they are covering there own butts right down to the smallest detail. That's not a good thing when you work in an industry where bad things can happen at any time and a typical day is a series of obsticals and minor problems that we need to solve. The office should be there to help us but to me they are just another obstacle I have to deal with.
Now of coarse there are those of you who will say there is no issue here but when you say that or write it management reads it here or hears about it from their company lackeys and their responce will ultimately be "yes you put up with it and that's why we do all these bad, negative, anoying things to you people."
By now alot of you will say quit and go do somethng else, will I'm not the problem so I'm not the one that should leave. Also, anybody that holds me to a high standard ows me thier best effort and my division doesn't give it.
