    Every time this guy posts I roll my eyes cause I know it’s some kind of complaint lol I can’t believe there’s grown men that every little problem they have their first reaction is “I better go on the trucking forum and post about this”.... “someone pulled out in front of me today and made me hit my brakes.. can you guys believe it?!”... “my boss gets annoyed and acts like a bully.. it’s almost like he expects me to work.. at work!” Not trying to be a jerk here but sheesh. Grow a set and do your job man.. you’ve been complaining about this boss and this job for years. Just leave. It’s really not a hard job. And yes I haul milk

    Irony is my favorite thing.

    Like the number of people on here complaining about people complaining.

    So that's what all those pee bottles are you find in truck stops and such places. People leaving drug test samples!

    Deleted because it repeated another post.

    Reason for edit: Delete post it actually repeats something another poster wrote. No reason to have the idea duplicated

    That is in any job. Failing to report a workplace injury is an OSHA issue. It is grounds for automatic termination.

    When I used to work at an airport before becoming an airplane mechanic the guy who worked the evening shift before I came on told the owner of the company don't drug test me. The owner agreed.

    I don't know anyone in my company who ever got randomly tested. But my old company one guy got "randomly" tested 3 times in one month. He told the fleet manager if he got called in one more time he was quitting. He was never called again.
