    Charged with DUI?
    In the beginning the lady said he was tired just looking for somewhere to park for the night... I'm curious what influence he was under..

    Drugs possibly. With DUI it doesn’t always mean that alcohol is involved.

    The driver shortage spin has always been a tool to manipulate ...
    it was and likely still is the industries way of inflating the
    ego's of the gullible.

    Recruiters using the language of ' the shortage ' in conversation
    on potential hires and when taken as truth the new hire effectively
    becomes the mark in the trucking con game.... they win ...you loose

    I recall working at a place named Western Star Transportation
    out in Carson Ca.

    Head dispatcher was quick to remind drivers that we were
    ' a dime a dozen ' if we ever barked back at anything
    or complained... their turn over rate was off the charts.

    I recall them stalling when it came to hiring me ... finally
    the safety guy laid it on the line and said most people don't
    last here 2 weeks , most hang on to the 90 day mark in order
    to not be charged back their airfare to be flown out there and
    did i still want to fly all the way out there and take the risk .

    The entire orientation class before mine had quit before their first
    week out was finished ...2 of them abandoning their trucks halfway across
    the country and had someone pick them up .

    Of my group i was the only one that made it .... all the others were gone
    before the 90 day mark .

    I stayed their right at 5 years and did just fine ....

    Go figure

    :dontknow:

    But I thought the Covenant companies were all about Christian values? Christians don't lie! :)
