I'm worried

Looks like paragraph (F)says it all. What i would like to know is why are the megas so concerned about gaps in a persons work record?

 

One more time. There is no verification requirement. It is just not there, period!

 

I am only guessing. I think first they want to follow the regulations as closely as possible and 2nd to cover their rear in the case of a problem down the road.

 

That's the thing you don't get. I have a total of 4 jobs in 15 years one in 2001 5 months. Then one from 5-2002 to 6-2014. They retired after 40 years. Then one from 11-2014 to 12-2015. They kept giving me nightmares. The last one. First trip out. They screamed at me. And I did nothing wrong. So I brought there truck back and told them where to cram it. So when you don't job hop. You don't have a real need for looking at work history requirements. And after The last job. I decided to retire. Elds, cameras so dumb butt screaming at me for no reason. People in an office trying to drive a truck from a cubical. Don't need that. And after seeing what today's drivers are like. Don't really feel safe on the road either. And now it seems trying to give advice. Results in getting attacked. Sure regret my time helping people.

 

XtendOvite from heartdrop.com works for me . I used a Wal-Mart prepaid gift MasterCard to buy it online , when I was on the PayPal section it changed from 79 dollars to 59 dollars because the $79 was Canadian currency

 

You raise several things. Yes it is good not to job hop. I'm a bit concerned though about your temper. All of us get yelled at from time to time. I got yelled at by a forklift operator in Mass once. I am a large man and forget how being large can intimidate people. I lost my temper jumped up on the dock floor and proceeded to tell that guy I was going to find a new place to put his cell phone. ( I'm leaving a lot out) I regret that today. I was tired and just run ragged. I don't know why you were yelled at and it is not any of my business, but sometimes we make serious mistakes when we lose our temper like that. The people in the office cubicles are doing their jobs. It is not easy to do those jobs. Finally there is nothing wrong with helping people. This is why I post like I do. Just try to make sure when you are helping in these forums it is correct information. One more thing, please don't take my comments personal. Their not directed that way. In fact I have a standing offer to any of the drivers in here that will contact me that if your ever in the Hampton Va area I will buy you a cup of coffee. This includes you!

 

To the op, it doesn't matter. Just our down the 10 years that is on the app and if you have gaps put something like school or helping out parents. They really don't care but it something that they will just glance at when you do it instead of leaving it blank.

 

Now your doing it. Please don't trivialize this. That application is one of the most important things you will do with that company. Most carriers don't just ( glance ) at it either. I have spoken to many drivers that got phone calls back asking for additional information. An attorney can and will have serious sex with a carrier that did not do due diligence in their hiring process and someone slipped through and killed somebody. So yes it does matter and you fill in the gaps with the truth.

 

Well, thats just not true for the mega companies. They dont want to see unexplaned gaps in your employment history.

 

drivers are on here all the time telling me i dont know what im talking about (probably right). No big deal. I would like to hear some of the advice you have to give and trucking adventures.
