    Will it say on the dac I got fired? I'd rather just say I quit considering how unfairly I got treated.

    If you're taking meds for anxiety you might want to reconsider trucking. It's a very stressful job. Terrible on your health. IMO

    Bro, don't even sweat the roundabout. They'd be shutting their doors if they saw how probably 99% of their drivers go into and around roundabouts if they had an issue with you going on the curb. Most of the curbs in roundabouts are rounded for a reason. The medications might have had more to do with it than they want you to know. Just a thought, if they were privy to them at least in anyway.

    If I recall, it will say you were either terminated or resigned. And where it says eligible for re-hire will say "yes", "no", or "review" or something about review. Been a long while since I saw my own DAC report. But you can order your DAC report yourself through hireright (that's the actual name now, not DAC but almost everyone here still calls it DAC) and see what they put on there about you, if anything.

    This is the one I don't understand.

    A roundabout is designed with an apron that a semi-trailers wheels go up on when it is using the inside lane.
    We are not meant to take up both lanes just to avoid the apron.
    What curb did you hit going through a roundabout?
     
    seagreg and Stringb8n Thank this.

    Shut your trap you condescending little b!+<h.
    The f#%& kind of assumptions are you pulling out your ###??? I have owned a car to comute for 4 years, more than 6 month experience as a former pizza driver and a good driving record to boot.

    4 1/2 days my ###! No one gives a s#!+ bro.

    You know what they say about assuming?

    Off the high horse

    I don't think he meant to offend you. He isn't lying about Schneider though. They will hire anybody, but they also play games with money over there.

    From post #4, above:

    "But again I have very little driving experience and am not that good."

    It was a two lane roundabout. I took the lane on the right, and kept my steers in my lane but my trailer hit a curb on the passenger side and nearly hit the sign. There was no big apron. I talked to a trucker later and he said I should've takened the left lane for part of the turn.
