Stay far away from employment with TWT

Man I had a big ole tub of popcorn ready when I got off the clock tonight and found no new replies to this thread. Im bummed now.

 

I CRY ########!! My hubby and I smelled his brakes before we saw him, we pulled up along side of him and told him to pull over and he would not! He drove past the truck runaway ramp and kept riding his brakes! ####ing idiot! We called Rob in safety and told him to get truck XXX pulled over before the flames hit, he would not listen to us. What a crock of #### . We drove for them 17 months and if they had a pet policy we would return.

 

I replied, lol go get your popcorn. Might want to get some tissuses too. What a tear jerker. Dude was so close to scale you would think he would have pulled over cuz the smell would have gotten him inspected if he wasn't in flames yet.
Some people should stay on trikes.

He rode his brakes down the hill. Only equipment failure after he burned up the tractor and trailer.
