Employment Screening

I'm really sorry to hear that. This is why there is no need to be loyal to any company. You have one minor problem and you get burned. This job is very difficult at times and dangerous. Then your going to get the perfect two year drivers on here saying " Well you should have done this and you should have done that" It's all your fault your careless and a poor driver. Things happen out here I work in NYC I have a number of close calls every single day. These things can happen to anybody at anytime. With some luck I would try and see if you can get on with an owner op to weather the storm. I hope that you find something soon. Good luck to you

 

U sure it was an small incident? Usually companies have a max of 3 until they reject you, what happen? Hit a curb and it blew? That's nothing serious. Roll your steers onto a Cement pole, catching your tie rod and ripping your own steer out?

 

Were you an "insufficient slow driver"?
Or difficult to deal with? Or asked too many questions? Or too picky?

 

That's is crazy they would crucify you for a honest mistake...... non life threatening at that

 

That's too bad,things far worse happen in this industry.you think maybe the load facility called your company and said something to your company that prompt them in to fireing you?

 

When applying or interviewing with other companies are you describing this as a "small" or "minor" incident? If you are that could be part of why you're getting rejected. Not to sound rude or incensitive but in my short years on this site the guy who isn't paying for the damage always describes it as small or minor. In fact I can't recall a post where a guy admitted that screwing up bad.

My advice would be to own the mistake and make it known that you have learned from it. Best of luck driver!

Btw, where are you from?

 

Sounds to me like you believe "honesty is the best policy".
Quit telling on yourself. Make the trucking companies find out what happened. Many former employers wont even reply back to companies that request info on former drivers.
Check your DAC to see what shows on record and quit talking.
