If only I could find a reputable seller of this insurance.
There is nothing reputable about the insurance industry.

If you hit someone or something and or you were at fault, what does it matter that you were back at the building ready to punch out with or without your lunch. You should be driving safely regardless. I hope everyone is OK that was involved in any case. If you were not at fault it still does not matter that you were ready to punch out without a lunch....just extremely unlucky. There is a driver in my building that had his package car hit while at a stop sign by a teenage girl on a bike going down a hill with no brakes and it was not his fault at all even though they said he should have seen her and adjusted accordingly. I believe that was considered a Tier 3.
I am at fault and I actually checked on the person I hit and he is doing fine.
I am still a part time employee, TCD. Another problem is I had an accident earlier in the year, hit while parked that the company deemed an avoidable accident. It has opened my eyes to so many things recently though. I am just another number to these people, and putting more stress with telematics doesnt make anyone a better employee, it just causes more stress. Every veteran driver I have talked to says this company changed whenever they went public. I am at fault and I actually checked on the person I hit and he is doing fine.
The fact that you were done with your route and were going out to get an air package is completely irrelevant. I wouldn't waste anymore time on that point.
You were on the clock and had an accident. Admit your mistake and hope they need you for peak. Good luck.
If you took your lunch during normal lunchtime hours you would have gotten back an hour later and probably wouldn't have been sent back out. You may have also violated your contract supplement for when you are required to take it. I hope you learn from this.
When you take your lunch is not as important as actually taking it. I do disagree with those who run their entire routes and then take their lunch just before punching out.
Know your depth of knowledge questions word for word. If you do have a chance of getting your job back, they will ask. If you don't know them, you probably won't be given another chance.
I haven't seen a division manager in browns for 20 yrs!!
