Yeah,I figured the reference. Hopefully Oleg is not on his way yet and I will be given the opportunity to talk to the boss first.
Seriously though,things are not as easy as you say.Like I said I gave the other party my license and insurance. I may get away with just paying deductible but it still hurts!
I did it!I hit the trailer!

No soup for you!!!!!
But seriously, I didn't know the white Volvo eastern European fleet fired anyone. A driver I use to work with got fired from a different company because he was sitting in the drivers seat, on his 10, drinking a Budweiser with his dinner (with the remainder of the 12 pack in his cooler). The white Volvo fleet bosses hired him...you might not be in as much trouble as you think. You may have to go Siberia and drive the Russian Ice Road for your boss' cousin Vladimir for a while...Last edited: Mar 28, 2017

^^^^ sure wish I could learn how to multi-quote... i'd have a few things to say, but with 8 min's left to departure to the barn, i guess @Big Don covered it~!
Best wishes to ya, O/P. A lot of good advice here. 1099 = nada but a few bux out the pox. Live and learn~!SingingWolf, Big Don, diesel drinker and 1 other person Thank this. -
Ah well. Don't think about the fact that you hit one. Think about the fact that you only hit one out of the thousands you've seen since you started driving. Them's purty good odds you ask me.SingingWolf, G13Tomcat, Big Don and 4 others Thank this. -

Wow, aren't you the one who argued with me about safety and speeding a while back?
Or maybe your the one who dumped pallets of product all over the trailer because you were going too fast in a turn.
Who knows?
But deductible can be more than the cost of repairs, I carry a $5000 deductible on preventable which my drivers pay, more likely than not your company will carry it too and that damage may be about $3000.
Always in a hurry,Kyle G. Thanks this.
