Is it expected to give a two weeks notice when you want to quit otr and go local?
Do u just tell dispatcher u need a load to the terminal to turn truck in? Do u write notice to quit like other jobs outside of the industry?
Who do u tell?
How to quit?

Most don't give 2 week notices they just till dispatch to route them to terminal im quitting.If your company has been good to you then I say they deserve a 2 weeks notice otherwise a few hr notice is sufficient enough as long as you're not under a load.When I was otr I quit a couple companies while home so I could clean trk out.Thats been yrs ago and both companies never gave future employers a bad refference.

I'd have my local job lined up first. You don't want to be unemployed without a complete year of experience. Get to the terminal. Clean the truck out really well and take pictures. Then check out with safety. Easy as that. If you want to give a two weeks notice, that's on you. I would for a small company, but large companies have the volume to not notice one steering wheel holder leave.

Have the (new) driving job before you put in a 2 week notice ! Its easer to find a truck driving job if you are working during new back ground CK.

Another thing I've heard is companies aren't going to post a DAC report until you've left. Best to get that new job lined up before your old one starts telling stories...

CY, that's funny. I didn't think we'd hear from you for a while after that embarrassing loss from the Packers yesterday. Poor McCarthy, was he upset. Now, what were we talking about? Oh yeah, quitting, "just slip out the back, Jack",,,Last edited by a moderator: May 9, 2015
