CFI is not as good a company as they think they are.

    Would you say the truck was in “ruff” shape?

    Make no bones about it, this driver won’t be fed a line of poop. :grommit:

    the feces would be a deal breaker for me too
    maybe you would tolerate it
    he quit the other company over a mileage issue and they happily took him back and put him in a clean truck

    Do you think CFI pawssoibly made a mistake and gave him a dirty truck?

    I hope he didn’t leash out at them. Not worth getting arrested over.

    I’m glad he’s pulling a waggin for someone else.

    Does the clean truck run wide open or is it neutered?

    I don't blame him for not taking the truck , just saying all he had to do was just let them know ...the truck is not ready for assignment and they would probably have given him another truck

    Instead of walking off with a hole in his foot ( work history section )

    At this point, I basically love my dogs as much as my wife. That's why I got a job where I'm home every single day, and they only miss me for on average 10 hours.

    If I had to be over the road, I wouldn't expect my dogs to have access to the shop. They're no good at turning a wrench.

    And they're not the cleanest beings in the world, so a deposit would be understandable.

    Is CFI the best company in the world? Of course not. But having dogs on the road creates a whole new set of circumstances. I don't feel as though they treated you unfairly.

    I was at Walmart yesterday
    Most dogass I have seen in the grocery department yet
    I like dogs but I don't have one now
    I can hop on a jet or truck hard and don't have worry about that albatross or expose the groceries to it to avoid leaving it in a hot car
    Don't have to worry about it barking all day while I'm living the life
    No shoveling poop and disposing of it either
    I see a big dog in a truck and I think that's a fool driving

    A friend of mine works at CFI.
    He has his dog with him on the road. He recently went to make a delivery at a place that wouldn’t allow him to bring his dog on the premises.
    He had to go to a motel and he got a room for his dog, just so he could make his delivery.

    This is a big one. Some customers won’t allow passengers either, just the driver. Although the human gets to stay on the premises.

    He's more convenient I would told the carrier they refused me food or not getting a motel just because dog seems silly but again we all have own lines we don't cross.
