Getting in trouble for hitting 70 in a 70mph zone is just stupid. They seem to get worse every year. I hear they fired one last week for 72 on the PA turnpike in a 70mph zone. WTF is up with that?
bigred81 Thanks this. -
I guess the recruiting department needs new meat to make their quotas.
bigred81 Thanks this. -
I have a new perspective of things. Cargo let me go with just cause. I did what I did, a ticket and a couple of minor incidences. I believe now that the company could foresee a big slowdown in dry freight and this is their way of "trimming the sails to take care of their senior guys and gals." After all, this was an election year and the general mood is always trepidation and the economy, uncertain. I believe it will rebound under Trump, but it will take time.
I applied with 15 companies and only got two invites, Navajo Express and Total Transportation of Mississippi. Was it due to ticket and incident OR slow freight time with the winter coming and even slower freight. If freight was running, I don't think I would have had as hard time getting a new gig. I am going with TOTAL after Thanksgiving. Maybe they lost too many people. I don't know. But grateful for the experience at CARGO. I want to believe that they had to do what they had to do to take care of the company and its senior drivers.bigred81 Thanks this. -
You have a good attitude, Torres. I'm still in disbelief that Cargo let you go over such menial things, but I'm glad to see you're keeping your head up and not letting that slow you down. I sincerely hope Total works out for you. Best of luck, pal!gntorres61 Thanks this.

Big G I am glad you are not bitter. It's a lot better for your health not to hold all that anger. However if they were trying to weed people out because Freight is slow then why are they still hiring drivers?? They got rid of you for one reason. Insurance risk. I saw it many times and almost the three years I worked there. Personally I think they could have handed you a little better than they did. it's not like you were having accidents all the time. I think they could have sent you to some refresher classes. Anyway I'm glad you found a place to call home. I hope it works out well for you. but I am a job Hopper and go buy a lot of hearsay so don't pay much attention to anything I say.
gntorres61 and bigred81 Thank this. -
