    No, I think it's just flats, steps and rgn.

    I'm surprised I made it 5 years !

    If you don't mind sharing, how many hits / nicks did you have before the final blow?

    You should be able to get a couple more "freebies" ... but once that probation kicks in , truck and trailer must be inspected every month for three months; paid for by the bco- and one ding is automatic termination

    So was your CSA too high then? Or what was there reasoning?

    I had 3 roadside inspections back to back in 2 or months and,

    Idk, I think it was the two back to back within 2 months that made me appear to be this new outlaw. So they did probation and I left

    Did they say how long before you could return? I've talked to half a dozen guys that had their lease torn up, for whatever reason, all having to do with violations of some sort, that came back like a year later.

    Well my lease was never terminated, I left on my terms. They were trying to get me to stay, but I said no way.

    Said I'm welcome back whenever I want.

    I didn't want the liability of rolling around on probation for 3 months, and one little nick and get my lease terminated for real

    So you coming back after a year or so goes by so you don't have to do the probation thing? There was a guy in my orientation that had been there many years, that was there because of a minor accident or something. So that must also come before the end.
