    Default Really Need Some Help Here.

    I got with CR England last year it was my first trucking company. In 08/06 I had these accidents were I bumped the curb with my last tandem tire and it busted and CR said that was preventable accident. So then I'm out on the road for 6 months and fighting with my Dm all the time about getting my miles I need. In 02/07 I had the drops were there dock was so hard to get into with a 53' trailer right in front of the dock you have a dumpster and next to that was this dog pin and around the dock it had rails on both sides well to short this up I almost had the dock when I hit a rail and it fell over and CR called it a preventable accident. Then one week later I had a drop where I was the first person to get into there dock that morning I backed into the dock nice and easy and everything looked fine until I was empty and they said I broke there dock. One of the rubber bumpers had fell down on one side it had holes for 4 screws but they only had 2 in there. I didn't hit there dock hard enough to brake the screw but they still blamed me and CR said that was a preventable accident. They left me out on the road for 3 more months and then pulls me in and fires me for safety and put 3 preventable accidents on my DAC. I Have 11 months OTR and I'm having trouble finding a company to take me can anybody help me ? I really need to get a job.

    Talk with sheepdancer. He might be able to get you in at JB. You do have 3 preventables, but they were at CRE. And the last one I don't think is your fault. And you did last 11 months with CRE. That's a positive thing. So check with him.

    BTW, I don't like JB for my own reasons, but i don't know who else you could go to.

    Good luck.
    Deja moo. It's when you feel you have heard this BS before.

    You are not supposed to hit so many things. In the future, tell them you got a flat tire, not that you hit a curb and the tire went flat. RE: Backing up, get out and look.
