    Hi all, Just wondering if anyone knows of ANY company that hires when you have an (unauthorized location, without notice) on your DAC? I'm being blackballed by my former employer, and am fighting this listing though USIS, but until then, even though I've never had a problem getting a job in the past, since leaving my last job, I've been turned down by everyone.
    Any comments welcome.

    Lie. Tell them you had told the company, but they had a lack of communications problem, therefore they had forgotten you told them. Trucking companies lie to us, so why not lie to them every once in a while. Stay away from the big huge companies.............

    what company?

    I agree. lie. they know DAC sucks and companies always file crap pretty much any time you quit. Arnold put a unauthoized use and truck abandonment on my dac. Luckily I was smart enough to take pictures of the quailcome mesages where they told me to take the truck to the yard closest to my house (not there main yard)

    Lie is a good idea I'm thinking, because in over a month of being honest, I've been turned down by about 20 companies.

    so what was the real deal? you deadheaded home when you weren't supposed to or what? that's what I did. they always tried to get you into the terminal on the weekend and there was no freight. they had security and once you were in the yard you were stuck!. I refused to come to the yard. sat out on the road waiting for my load. (this was a "home every weekend" job and I had missed the previouse 3 this exact same way) they kept trying to get me in the ard but I wouldn't go. after 4 hours with no load I deadheaded home. .... bamm. unauthoried use. Luckily once I have the pic proving the truck abandonment was BS they don't believe the other one either

    Nope.. Something much worse.. Dum dah daaahh..
    I refused to work when my Mother in law died.. And after I was fired/quit (depending on whom you ask) I had the audasity to refuse to bobtail the 30 some miles in the snow to take the truck to the yard until it cleared up.

    well I take back what I said about lieing. I'd think that was a good enough reason.

    it's just bad now. Chances are your not finding a job has nothing to do with the dac even if they say it is. If they needed drivers they'd hire ya

    I had an unauthorized deadhead one time, back when I was with Arrow transport. They pissed me off sooooo bad, that I deadheaded to Tulsa Ok, from Chicago. They messaged me about 7 hours or so later and asked me why I was in Joplin Mo.......I told them your getting your #### back and I'm a nice enough guy to bring it to ya.

    They never put it on my DAC though. I don't know if I have anything on my DAC or not.

    You know what, I'd almost believe that if I had'nt been all but offered the ###### jobs.. then, at the last minute, told that they'd have to pass on hiring me at this time.
