Navajo Express has just abandoned this trainee in a tiny town 1500 miles from home!

I'm calling! Thanks so much to you and everyone out there supporting me. You are all rock stars. No. You all are my heros. I pledge to pay it forward and do everything I can to bring attention to those of you who keep this country running. Truckers! Victor V. is so right about the commonality of poor treatment of so many drivers by disinterested and egotistic management. The public needs to know.

 

I am sure the general population has no clue just how poorly driver treatment has deteriorated down to. The media needs to align with us to effect change.

 

My first trainer was a psycho jerk... but, I chose to bide my time and strategically dropped him at my home terminal, which was only a few miles from my house...

 

Spoke to Rob at CBS, not broadcasting news further tonight. He took link and info, earliest CBS can look into this is tomorrow. Their tip line info is: http://denver.cbslocal.com/news-tips/

 

Spoke to Alan at Fox, they're about to go on air. Gave him my contact info and my summarization of JustPj's plight. He wanted to know if there was a Colorado connection. Had explained earlier that Navajo Express was Denver-based and repeated same.

/Gonna call it a night. G'nite! The last two stations both wanted to confirm that there's a Colorado connection, obviously there is with Navajo and hopefully I recall correctly that JustPj is somewhere Colorado-ish, too. Over 400 posts on this fast thread. So, JustPj, they want to know that first and foremost, that it's a relevant, Colorado story.

 

Companies like Navajo and SR refrigerated make me sick.
Their Greed has no boundries.


I was stranded by an o/o in ontario california back in 2008, it was just a simple run in a 63" peterbilt in which he smoked with windows up and hell broke lose once he got a beer in the truck and the rest is a long story.
(Quick mention to that cuban driver I lost contact with for helping me out for 4 days while he waited for a load out)

Pj good luck, sorry I couldnt help, I've been stuck in ND for 3 days and now heading south to houston.

 

Sweet dreams, Victor V. Bless your heart. I'm about to call it a day as well.

I do hope you all are not sick of my thanking you, I can't do it enough. I spoke with Darrin at the Post and we agreed he should read the thread. If he's interested, it's a story. Either way, they'll be back in touch with me and I will let you know the haps.

Good night, and everybody please be safe. You're an amazing group and I adore you all.

I agree with Gitana a bit....if u are or were an attorney why would u even consider a ride from someone like that on Craigslist??? Not judging but just sort of wondering aloud. I agree no one should left you stranded. I hope you win if file a lawsuit and forgive me for asking this....again being a former attorney you cant find a way home. I get you asking trucking community for a ride but with all due respect im 32 years old and if i got steanded anywhere in the country, if i had money or not, i have at least five ways home and depending where in country im at maybe more...this scenerio should have been planned for at begining of training. First thing i did is figure out how i wouldget home from each section of the country and who i could crash with or hop a ride with if need be...good luck....will still be lifting u up in my prayers.

 

I sent a msg to the Tip Line on TheBlaze's website.

 

Apparently, their drivers like to try to run over bicyclists as well.

I see this thread just exploded.

Put my .02c on this "company's" Facebook page.
