Profile For Mike M.

It sounds like you handled the incident in a very professional manner. Things happen sometimes, things are more likely to happen when your new. Let this incident replay in your head and think of all the little things you maybe could do to prevent this in the future and walk away a more experienced driver. This will go on your record but I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's VERY important however that you don't make these types of things a habit or pattern. Stay safe, and stay smart, stuff happens.

I don't know your specific company but every one I've been at I've had access to a direct contact ( my slave driver ), you shoot that person either a text or voicemail ASAP before even trying to make contact with the larger dispatch network. This is mainly to CYA and make sure that at the least you made an effort to communicate the issue, at best they have better contact info than you do and even after hours can fix it all and just send you a 👍. BTW there's nothing wrong at all with showing up after appointment or after a location is listed as closed, you'd be surprised how often things can just work out, always however leave yourself enough time to get to anywhere you can shut down for 10hrs no matter what.
