I agree, that is just outrigh nastiness!! You should put an end to this right away, as the old sang goes, give them an inch and theyll take a mile. You definately need to speak with someone about this!! Sounds like this person is very short on manners and respect for others.![]()
Company has assigned me to be a team driver. Teammate has horrible habits!!!

Don't leave any of your socks lying around.

Get away from him! If you do not feel right about something, tell somebody at the company.
Even if he did not have the sleeper-pleasure habits, being in that kind of environment of him reiking, you cannot learn well. You need to be at-ease to fully be able to comprehend everything that goes on in the truck to learn from.
Do not put up with a dirty-stinking co-driver! -
This is sexual harassment. All companies have a policy against it. You need to report him to safety and to your manager immediately!

I wouldn't even tolerate that from my husband! I'd be on the phone with the disbatcher before he could rub another one out! GROSS!

Every company I have had experience with over the years and even some I haven't, have policies on sexual harrassment. Report this guy and quick. Look out for yourself, if the company doesn't respond check out state or federal laws regarding it. Main thing is DO SOMETHING NOW.

That's Just Nasty! Report him NOW, no one has to put up with that, the bad hygiene would be enough to make me want out of that truck.

Please tell me you are covering the drivers seat before you sit down??
However, if you really want to play this game.... take care of the documentation first (take pictures, video, audio the sounds etc...) .... then get a box of latex gloves (which you should already have with this dude around).... pick up those nasty ### tissues and start "throwing them away" in his pillowcase, his sleeping bag, his shoes, his socks, his ice box etc....... stick one in each item he owns...... he should get the picture fairly quickly.....
That might get his attention when he sees his actions in writing and knows EVERYONE got a copy!

ew. ew. ew. No amount of money could possibly be worth having to see those nasty tissues all over the floor. Does he pick them up at SOME point? Have you mentioned anything to him?
-
I wonder where this would fall in terms of DOT inspections?
It could be worse... after all he might not bother using tissues at all...
