criminal charges for refusing to drive illegal

Make sure you permanently save those texts (usually a long-press on the message brings up a menu, or if you "star" the messages, or ask your telco). Print them out with dates and times.

 

Just be careful in your words and emotions while explaining. It could mean a difference in the situation. Be safe my friend....

 

I had an employer threaten to "have me stopped at a scale and report the truck stolen" once. This was because instead of driving illegally to his yard, I was driving within my h.o.s to my HOME (the same direction as the yard from where I was). I told him go ahead and have me stopped and report the truck stolen. I will provide to the scale house my signed bill of ladings, my log book, my fuel card WITH receipts, and my dispatch records, you know, all the address and load info he texted me all showing that the truck was in fact NOT stolen. Then I will explain to them why this turned in to what it did (him pushing me to run illegal). Also, whether or not he succeeded in getting me arrested, don't forget that he now has to pay impound/tow/storage fees on that truck. It won't just sit at any scale house or on the side of the road. They will tow it. If he doesn't like those chances he can pick up the truck from my house, or I will take it to him when I am legal to drive it. He hung up on me. I was waiting for a scale to red light me or to get pulled over. Never happened. I dropped his truck off to him the next morning.

He had a final check sitting on his desk with my name on it and he refused to even acknowledge my presence.

 

That's A LOT of popcorn Mr.

 

Did you ever answer any of his text messages after your brk or just bail on him?

 

With all due respect, that doesn't matter, does it? People over sleep, phone batteries die, phone coverage is terrible. To immediately threaten reporting the truck stolen after a break probably means this guy has had it happen before. Probably for similar reasons to what the OP said. Until each of us were a part of this mess though, no one will know for sure.

 

So when does this movie actually start, or is it pay per view? More popcorn plz..

 

I don't know your but u have it all wrong! It's a new mini series!

 

Boss said if he doesn't call him he will report thief.OP never said if he called him or not.If OP did not call him can you honestly blame his boss?I can't.I mean seriously what's his boss suppose to do sit back and do nothing?Far as the OP not getting a paycheck,he needs to do it the right way and seek legal action not fight fire with fire.In the end the op will be the one to get burned.A dead phone is a lame excuse for not calling his boss and doubt that was the reason.
