Fired over not picking up my phone

Give them my number so I can't answer them, ########!

 

Exactly. Maybe it's a generational thing. Cell phones weren't given to kids when I was younger, so the addiction never developed.

 

All you need is 6 months to get on with JB. I'll train you personally. Send me a PM if interested.

 

So like many of my friends, I gave up my land line years ago....no need to have it, all calls goes directly to android's voicemail or text. I choose whether or not to pick up a call. It's not a big deal if they call.

Oh and BTW, I have never been fired for refusing a load...

 

This is true but I think the OP was referring to a 10 hr break and not hometime.

 

I usually get some sleep on my 10, not wait for the phone to ring. Are you serious?

 

I am usually serious as a heart attack. I worked at a company that was all screwed up with their dispatches. Local job. I would get home at 5am to go back around 3pm. They would call me at all different times and tell me what time to come in. Obviously I didn't stay there very long. The fact is if I cannot get sleep therefore I am not going to be safe driving all night. Not arguing with you. Just saying I would not tolerate it.
