Reason for termination: violation of company policy regarding: Overall unsatisfactory job performance. Got popped on I94 wb in southern WI 400 lbs over axle on the drives. Shipper scale shows me legal, Illinois scale on US 41 nb out of Chicago area gave me the green light. Load was too light (less than 42,000 lbs) to get reimbursed for a CAT scale. Due to alleged overaxle weight, I was pulled in for a level one DOT inspection (which lasted for an hour and a half) and was made forty minutes late for delivery instead of being there with bells on. I have had a grand total (in my own recollection) of 5 service failures in nearly 4 years. Of which, only 2 were entirely my own fault. The other three stemmed from circumstances beyond my control. (see above example)
