[QUOTE="40 and out, post: 620451, member: 21936"] I guess I was lucky too. In Dec of 97 I was fired for not reporting an accident. A dog ran under my tire hurt its leg. Customer called in from vet wanting their $50 bill paid. Hitting a dog had never been an accident before. I knew I was in some trouble when center manager was still there at 800 when I got in. He was never there after 500. Was walked out of building by LP and fired but was given my job back the next day. Still made for a sleepless night not knowing if I was fired for good or not. This was right after the strike and they were firing many drivers in our building for retaliation. I think all of them came back eventually but some were out for awhile. The worst was a driver who had just gone through the terrible death of his 2 year daughter to cancer. He barely backed into a gutter. Didn't even realize he'd done it. Customer called in. He was fired for not reporting an accident and was out several weeks. Was afraid someone would go postal and do something to management. Hope we never have to go through anything like that again.
