Plenty of jobs for you then. Keep us posted and we'll help you find a decent job.
Do you have endorsements?
Sysco and Sygma probably hire you and you'll make close to double the annual income as you would with Werner.
Still, plenty of companies in your area to choose from.LilRedRidingHood and Morty321 Thank this. -
I haven’t hit anything since 2020, and again , I tapped a bumper going 1/2 mile an hr. I pulled my records for 7 years back and I have 3 tapped bumpers in total. They kept telling me there was a major accident in 2019 ( which is false and no record of that)and kept calling me Gary— my name is Glenn. Is it possible they have confused me with someone else?LilRedRidingHood and Numb Thank this.

Seems like a wreck is being attributed to you instead of someone named Gary. You need to contest that; might even need a lawyer to straighten it out.LilRedRidingHood and Eddiec Thank this.

If your MVR does not show anything such in 2019, and they also keep calling you something besides your correct name--this shows real confusion between/among safety and recruiting--& I would take that as a MAJOR RED FLAG......

Here's a couple of threads you can read to better prepare if Werner fires you and you get old "Gary" out of the way.

Anything is possible. Call them back and have them confirm your address and phone number. Talk to someone above the rank that your conversing with now. Do not volunteer information not asked for, and remember to get names!LilRedRidingHood, Morty321 and Chinatown Thank this.

Update! Werner made a mistake… and told me that one of the bumper taps wasn’t my fault so I’m down to two and I can start my orientation tomorrow. Man that had me sweating and stressing because I haven’t had a paycheck in 8 weeks. Thank you all for your help. I’ll keep you posted if anything changes. I just need the experience so I’m starting out with Werner for now.
LilRedRidingHood and Chinatown Thank this.
