Hello! So I got terminated from my last job on 7/12/2024. They are trying to say that I damaged one of there trailers but they don't even have any evidence stating that I was the one who did it. There is no video of me doing it. It is just hear say. They also fired me for a health condition. I got injured on the job a little while ago and had a concussion. I did everything by the book, I reported it to my supervisor and even gave them a doctor note. Recently i just found out that they are also not giving me my last paycheck. They said they had to hire a third party to clean the truck because I accidently left food in the fridge. Which I never signed any documentation stating that if there ever was damage to the truck that I would have to pay for it. I also have 1 at fault accident on my record with a personal vehicle that happened in February of 2022. There was no ticket or citation. Also one speeding ticket on my record that was 15 over the speed limit that happened March of 2022. The speeding ticket will fall of next year.
So with all that being said does anyone know of any companies that would hire me?

I never said I wasn't taking responsibility for my actions. I do take the accountability for the speeding tickets that I got way before I got my CDL because I had a lead foot, I thought I was a nascar driver! LOL!! But now for the accident that happened with my last company. I had nothing to do with. I gave them my two week notice. Many of there drivers warned me that they would try and find a way to just get rid of me and that is exactly what they did. I am one of those drivers that drives safe, does the speed, covers my own butt, if I can't see where my trailer is I still get out and look. It is better to get out and look that it is to just keep backing up and to hit something and to look like a complete fool. I had security cameras on my truck and the trailer. Every trailer I would hook up to I would just remove the devices from one trailer and put it on the next one. When i reviewed the footage of that day that suppose I hit something with there trailer. There was nothing there stating that I was the one at fault. where I got the trailer was at a MillerCoors shipper in Elkton VA and there are a lot of not the brightest drivers that got there and will not report when they hit something, they will just leave and not care who gets put at fault. The only thing the company has against me is not doing the pre trip on the trailer. Yes I take accountability for my actions with that because I was in a hurry to get a decent parking spot at the nearest Love's. The company doesn't even have any footage of me doing anything with there trailer. I should of made all of this known in the first post I made. I am sorry for that!
