Ignore the prick. You are on private property. Its their call. Another pathetic owner who feels everyone owes him.

MartinFromBC and x1Heavy Thank this.

I am mildly amused when drivers claim that they were forced to break the HOS. I don't MIND running a little something now and then when it's necessary. But choosing to break the HOS? And risk the OOS etc plus fines and all that? The owner can drive the truck hisself before I would break that.
This whole episode would fit right into a soap opera day tv about a bad marriage between trucking company and driver.MartinFromBC and Canadianhauler21 Thank this. -

FMCSA’s driver coercion rule published, blocks carriers, shippers from threatening drivers with loss of pay -

Forced dispatch is very common in this industry. Don't fall for it, drivers need to learn their jobs above and beyond driving to help them avoid these things. Not all employee / employer relationships end on good terms, in fact there are probably more that don't.
When I call former employers, I have to read between the lines often. If you have an employer that flat out lied about some aspect of the job (work hours, pay etc) and you spent less than the three month probation period with them, do not list them on the resume.Canadianhauler21 Thanks this. -
If the jerk is hanging around your truck, I would rig up a camera. He may try to damage it somehow, or make it unsafe. He does that and sees you drive off, he'll phone DOT. Or rent a rottweiler and give it a 25 foot leash.
x1Heavy and Canadianhauler21 Thank this. -
I can tell you now, if you think there is BS is trucking. YOU HAVE NO ####ING IDEA what it's like in Trades.
Seriously man, I would rather be 1) A Criminal 2) An Illegal in a tropical country or 3) Dead before I ever went back to Trades. Esp building trades in Toronto or Vancouver.
The guy is just being a dick head, don't let it bother you too much. You're almost past 2 years, you can get a nice local job with Walmart, Coop, Safeway/Sobeys, and enjoy life.x1Heavy and Canadianhauler21 Thank this.
