    So I was accepted to CR England and was supposed to show up on a certain date. I called them that same day to tell them thanks but not thanks. I did this after many people talked me out of it. Said they are a terrible company.

    Anyways, I never showed up like I was supposed to. Does this go on my record? I heard that once you are physically there and then you leave, they can put that on your DAC as having left without giving a warning. Am I OK since I never showed up then called the same day to say no thanks?

    You actually never worked there... So I would say no.

    You never signed any employment paperwork other then the application right? You didn't take a drug screen of physical right?

    If this is the case it shouldn't go on your dac, if it does sue them.

    It shouldn't effect your DAC. Regardless, you should check every once in awhile. I filled out an app for Swift and they put on my DAC I worked for them. Got it taken care of but only because I checked my DAC frequently.

    When I got into trucking in 2008 I also accepted an offer from CR England...had them book the bus ticket and everything. I also backed out at the last minute. Besides one phone cal from my recruiter who I am sure was disappointed she didn't get her commisson..I never heard another word...nor is it anywhere on my DAC

    Thanks everybody. How can I check my DAC? I'm sure there is nothing on it because I have a car and was going to drive to the truck company so they didn't buy a bus ticket for me.
