So . . what are you saying? You hit a few things, you ought to be forgiven and the transportation world should hold still while it adapts itself to you?

 

Can we say bulls**t????????????

 

my advice...go to work at Hooters as a cook. much better bennies. =)

 

If you are not going to give real advice then stop commenting I don't need your crap. Thanks

 

Guess you don't like when everybody doesn't sugarcoat your problem and actually tells you the truth?

 

First of all, just getting fired will make it very hard to get a job driving anywhere. Even before the current reduction in "driver shortage" situation, you did not want to have "fired" on your record. And, companies like CR England have a reputation, not only with the drivers, but also with other companies. Getting fired from one of "those" companies is even worse than from any other company.
With even one year off the road, they now want you to go through a retraining course. Much less 3 years. Virtually every company out there wants recent experience, within the last year.
Getting a flat tire is not uncommon. Otherwise, there would not be so many successful tire shops around the country. But, telling your cat about it is not something that happens everyday. Are we talking about a four-legged... Covered with fur??? If I had a cat that could hold a two-way conversation, I'd make that public, and make all the money I could off of it. :roll: I mean, a talking cat... That there is a real money maker, that is...
And, by any chance, was this backing in "blind-side"? When backing into an area like that, the word is "G O A L". Get Out And Look. Even if it's not blind-side, there is one corner of the back of the trailer that you can not see, no matter which side you are backing in from. There have been far more times than I care to count, that when backing in, I've gotten out and checked the clearance of the back of my trailer. If blind-side, I might only back up 3 feet, and when getting close, it may only be 1 foot before I got out and looked again.
Now, this one says YOU BOTH DESERVE TO GET FIRED!!! Her for getting into a moving trailer, and you for moving it while anyone is inside it. This one is worse than a flat tire or a talking cat. :moon::moon: (one for each of you)
Someone certainly did see you coming. For that kind of money, you could have paid 1500 to go through Fox Valley Tech in Appleton, WI, and paid for your room and board, with money left over.

By any chance, when you first get into a truck, do you sit there, holding the wheel, staring out the windshield for 20 some minutes, to get your "KARMA"??? Just a thought.:hellno:

 

Okay you idiots that don't know **** about me and the stuff that I am talking about kiss my:moon: issedoff: I didn't say I was talking to a real cat that is what they call the second part of your training. Second I did get out and check and when I popped my brakes the trailier rolled back a inches and hit the stuipd railing that was already loose. As for the girl getting into my trailer she had no business getting in there until i was all the way in the dock whic I wasn't. I got fired because they have a point system and each of my incidents counted as 1 point and then I got a point for not enough experience So that is why I got fired not like it mattered. I know that I will have to take a refresher course and I am fine with that I just wanted to know if anybody knows of a company that offers that. But thanks for all of the crap and no help. :ranting:

 

I wonder if attitude had any bearing on the decision.

 

In one of our 'safety' meetings we had a while back, they talked about attitude. Attitude plays a big part in drivers' safety. They say that you never want to get in a truck and drive with a poor attitude. Attitude effects your driving responsibilities, and reflects on how you drive.

 

When you "interview" post accident,ect many times you will "push" the driver to see how fast their attitude changes and if that may have been a factor.
