Personal Responsibility
 

The first thing that any new truck driver needs to know and keep in mind is everything that he does in a day, on the truck or off, is your responsibility. Parking your truck in a vacant parking lot, with some straps over the load, thinking it is secure and not expect something to happen while you reset your 34hrs. Boy, you need to get off the crack. Even if one does record what the company says with a tape recorder, means nothing. It is criminal to record someone without their knowledge and consent.
In this world of getting something for nothing, and putting the blame on everyone but yourself, you have to be part of the solution and not the problem. Ask questions. Then you ask more questions. If something sounds funny or not right, use your God given common sense. Accept responsibility for the things that you do wrong.
Live and work by the rules of your company and the law. If you refuse not to, then accept the consequences. If the company refuses to apply the law and try to force you to do such practices, then there is a higher power above them.
I have just been reading some of the posts and my mind is all boggled up with ideas and thoughts of how or why people cannot and just refuse to adapt and use common sense.

The main reason most people get in trouble is, (common sense) is not very common.
Or at least not applied very much.

Personal Responsibility
 

"It is criminal to record someone without their knowledge and consent". Not in all states. BOL

Re: Personal Responsibility
 

True. You can call from NV to anywhere.

If you do record someone you must tell them up front that they are being recorded and have a legal right not to answer your questions.

Read the 3rd paragraph.

Paragraph 3 is how the tv show Crank Yankers was able to be produced from Las Vegas. One of the parties was aware of the recording. The person doing the prank.

Thank-you.

I think you are mixed up between "taping" and "disclosing". Both parties must be aware of the recording. But only one has has to consent to disclosing any information.

I realize this is your state we're talking about, but Crank Yankers could not exist unless recordings of phone calls can be made.
