ok, so be it..but you still broke your company rules for not reporting it ASAP, like before you left the place.
good luck, let us know the outcome.

i remember having a "pong game", can't say where i got it from, i'm thinking some sort of long gone mail order company, or radio shack. ONE GAME of pong, but it had like maybe speed adjustments...was in black and white..
in fact, the game controllers here in this pic, are exactly like what i had. they each came out of the console, and only slid up and down.....i think the name of the company was Univision..??
D.Tibbitt, Intothesunset and JC1971 Thank this. -
Just slip the guy a Ben Franklin and don't worry about it.
Midnightrider909 and D.Tibbitt Thank this. -
In the situation you describe, reporting this to your company was not a good idea. It benefits no one and is only going to hurt you. At the very least you have an accident or incident on your report that didn't need to be there.
D.Tibbitt, Chinatown, Mototom and 1 other person Thank this. -
He’s not just a desk jockey, he owns the desk. And he drives a Prius, and he’s a licensed ham, so how bout showing a little respect?

If no police report was made from a DOT certified officer than there will be (no) accident report on your DMV report.
That is all I can say about that. -
After getting a taste of it I don't think I'd make it a lifelong career anyway. I was planning on just finishing my year contract and doing something else, maybe a local job where I'm not bound by HOS or logs. Still havent heard anything back yet. I'm making a delivery close to the terminal, so I'm assuming I'm heading back there afterwards.buddyd157 Thanks this.

But what if this guy was some kind of sociopath and acting nice to set me up for a frivolous lawsuit? I just thought it would be better to throw myself under the bus sooner rather than the steamroller later. Then again the damage done was $50 or less and there was no real way he could falsely claim injury or anything.
