Explain the reasons for your termination in the most honest and up-front way possible....the incident (slapping mirrors ) does not seem to be an offense that a company would terminate a driver for though...did you leave and not tell any one and later get caught , or did you report the incident to them right away...seems there may be more to your story. But yes when a company puts terminated on your record..that will close many doors to you.
Saddletramp1200, G21 and fr8te_sh8ker Thank this. -
A lot of companies have A policy that either they don't hire anyone who got fired ever and some you have to wait so long like 3 to 6 months before reapllying.What exactly were the lies from the trainer if you don't mind me asking?
fr8te_sh8ker and Saddletramp1200 Thank this. -
This is in no way meant to be disrespectful to you. But if you are submitting a resume written the way your post was written, You are going to have problems. Please find somebody you can trust to help you compose a well written explanation of what happened in the incident. Use facts only and be very clear in your explanation. Do not lie or leave the truth out. Good luck.

Im having difficulty understanding your post. You got fired for bumping mirrors, is that correct?

Sure theres not more to it ?
My son had to let a driver go for supposedly bumping mirrors with another truck , he bumped the mirror after RIPPING the door off the other truck along with the hood.KW Cajun, Tonythetruckerdude, passingthru69 and 5 others Thank this. -
In other posts you mention a dropped trailer with a trainer and entering an unauthorized car parking area. Then bumped mirrors.
Then you were terminated. I think the dropped trailer and the bumping mirrors will both be on your DAC.FLATBED, luvtotruck and pattyj Thank this. -

Dude It all depends on where you are, Where are you? I can't force anyone to do anything but I wish they would put where they are out of!
Now to the matter at hand, Check with them, just don't fill out an application and stay awake and alert and by the phone waiting for one place to call you, keep swimming, keep moving, someone will take you, may not be the type of truck in your dreams or a good paying mileage or whatever, but you gotta take what you get and as my kids cafeteria at school says "Take What You Get, And Don't Throw a Fit!" Check with them, Say "Listen, I was fired for some erroneous reasons, I just need to get back in a truck and make things right, my family and I need me to be working, What can I offer you"? Not "Hey Man what do you want from me? Yeah I got Fired, They put the trash can behind me after I started backing in, The secretary didn't like me and she is friends with my Ex girlfriend and they were looking for a reason to fire me" This isn't going to go well for you. Get over it and accept the fact that you %^&*ed up!, Man up and go find a job! We all wish you luck!fr8te_sh8ker and Chinatown Thank this. -
Where do you live; city/state.?
