[QUOTE="soberups, post: 584587, member: 14668"] [b]Re: Taken out of service for not knowing saftey dribble?[/b] The company does have some leeway during the 30-day probationary period to determine who is qualified to be promoted to full time driving. However...I find it odd that they would place stricter requirements on a full time driver vs a part time one. A part-time driver must still meet the same qualifications as a full time one in terms of DOT regs and safe driving and work methods. The person who told you that you must recite the safety drivel in order to be a "full time" driver might be lying to you in order to motivate you to learn it. The only thing that matters to him is getting a good score on the next audit. What the company [I]cannot [/I]do...is to just make up a bunch of silly word games and then threaten seniority drivers with disciplinary action for failing to get a perfect score on them. [/QUOTE]
