Somebody help me here..

I have roughly 8 months OTR experience, and 1 accident on my DAC report, no injuries were involved, it was over trying to dock the trailer into a tight situation, and the telephone pole was in the way...I followed all safety procedures...and what really ##### me up is, all the other docks were wide open with space..next time I'm just gonna holler at a 'jock' to park the trailer for me. No more risk-taking on my part. Other than that, I consider myself to be a safe-driver.

Also, I was canned from Covenant BECAUSE of my co-driver's screw-up's. He didn't give a #### about the job..I mean, he said he didn't even care if they fired him! Now, how is that my fault, if he ain't trying to hear me out..trying to boss me around and #####.

That's why I don't want nothing to do with team-driving anymore. SOMEBODY HELP ME.

My recruiter wants to get me into CRST, BUT I have to team-drive again! With somebody I don't even know! He could be a ##### for all I know, he could have drug problems, I mean..who wants to deal with that crap? Not me!

And what's even worse is...most companies won't hire somebody outta Michigan. Huh???

I'm willing to re-locate to another state for a solo job.

I don't mean to come off like this, but after all the crap I've been through with other team-drivers, how do you expect me to feel?

Solo driving is all I ask.

Somebody help me.


Thanks

Driver 2008 , just a man who's trying to get his life together without the drama.

 

Ya, I have sent applications to a load of companies, I took the time to do research here, and read about others experiences.

So far, I've only got a couple offers for Owner Lease. But, that's some serious risk-taking there, and I've got a School Tuition bill to worry about.

If you know of any companies off-hand, or if you could put in a good word for me, let me know. I'm looking for preferably refridgerated runs, Wal-Mart runs (they're killing everyone else in the market), even Dollar Generals would work.

Also, I do plan to re-locate out of Michigan.

 

-edit-

As for the guy who asked about the discrimination against Michigan workers, that was what the Recruiter told me...NOT an opinion of mine. I'm going by facts here.

 

Thanks, I just e-mailed them an application and will follow-up Monday.

 

Will check on Celadon today. Thanks.
