Don't worry Jedediah and Ezikiel have hitched a team and are in route and intend to have you back to legal weight before the fortnight passes.

Okay i'll admit that in my driving career i have been shut down a time or two.or ten. or more.the number does not matter but what i did each time,after the fact, does.
OP-ask the scalemaster/dot/whomever if you can drive the few miles to the truckstop.advise them what has,rather has not,transpired between you and boyd bros.It matters not if they decline to let you move but you will not know until you ask.I never failed to ask if i can move to a truckstop or other for convenience and i am almost certain the Missouri DOT will work w/you.If not,ask each shift change.you have to look like a truck driver by now so perhaps pity is in order at this point.
best of luck but be persistent and professional.you'll be pleasantly surprised i am hoping.also start planning on a new employer as you now know exactly what kind of outfit boyd is.give them a month for the notice,a week is too short,2 weeks fair,but a month can't be dissed by them @dac.keep your notice for your future employer for verification.
Time to move on in a couple of ways driver and all you've done thus far has not worked-Last edited: Apr 7, 2014

The ld. is impounded. To heavy

To bad the O.P. cant just sell a bundle to a lumber yard or Menards store etc. somewhere around there. Yes I understand they would have to come and get it..

If people read what was going on the random thoughts that muddle these threads would not happen.
