Lattimore materials corporation. shoot the messenger!!

Ladies and Gentlemen. There is another thread on this site that tells drivers to come to Texas and work in the oil and gas industry. . Anyway now that I have vented . I've been In ready mix for about 25 years this is the way it is. I hired on a L.M.C. about four months ago. If any of you have read my earlier post you may be able to follow along. I was pretty much run off from a ready mix joint because I refused to drive a truck that was red tagged by the state highway patrol because bad steering tire. Then I applied at L.M.C. I made it very clear to Lattimore materials that I would not drive junk equipment. So anyway they said they had good equipment and hired me. During my 4 months of employment there I put up with more totally asinine company policies than I have ever seen. "I swear" For a at least a month I wrote up that the mixer truck that I was driving had a rear bad throttle control. which is a pain in the ### because I would have to run from the back of the truck to the cab to run the throttle up and down. Anyway one afternoon I was waiting to load and saw some bare wires laying on the frame rail. Being fairly mechanically inclined I climbed on the fender pulled a muscle.BIG DEAL""" My doctor does not do workmans comp. they fired me. Insubordination.

 

I Have warned all of you!!!

I really don't know. I drove around with a left front slack adjuster that would back off for about 3 weeks. When we had a safety meeting I had to say twice that the mechanic needs to sign off on my post trip that the equipment has been repaired. In other words the mechanic never signs off on anything.

That is how they cover there ###. Dick### is Part of the system and he has buddies so they let them slide. So like I said the next time a D.O.T. cop pulls you over "just Laugh"
