    You should be fine. It been better ifnu had a year in. Plenty ppl thay will still take you and probably pay more than what you was getting.

    Won't be the last time dinging up property. Crap really happens. The owner of my company is really reasonable. don't lie and no excuses. Complacency and distractions sucks too after years. You are good, Our turnover rate is no existent about 45 drivers. Crap happens.

    I think you really need to get under that trailer more and get straight earlier. =)

    You said you're quitting anyway; do you have another job lined up?
    If you bumped another trailer and there was no damage, why did you report it?

    The trailer scooted over and into the one next to it. Management was all ready all over it (like within 10 minutes). Not even sure how they heard abt it. I figured they would’ve found out anyway. We’re not a large group of drivers.

    And I do NOT have a new job lined up. The company kinda gave me the punched-in-the-gut feeling, so I decided to get out.

    I’ve mentioned in other posts that this is a second career for me, so I have the luxury of not “needing” a trucking job. I thought/think I wanted one.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    If it's a small company, probably doesn't use DAC. Anyway, too late now.
    Those two minor preventable won't keep you from another trucking job.
     
    Lepton1 and Shaggy Thank this.
